If it does not help with pain, I'd suggest you rethink taking it. Very addictive and has other bad side effects that you may not see...

Made me hyper and couldn’t sleep. It was like I’d drank 20 cups of strong coffee if I took it for bed but if I only took it on a morning it kept me going. Everybody is different. Good luck x

Unfortunately, I've tried it twice about 5 years apart the first time I gave me horrendous headaches and these second time acute dizziness and nausea so I've given up on it. Two friends were prescribed it after major operations for a limited period and found it marvellous for the pain, one had minside effects and the other had some weird hallucinations but fabulous pain relief. I know one lady who has taken it long term for bad back problems, she has had no side effects and said she couldn't manage without it.x

Yeah, I've been taking it for years for chronic back pain. I take as little as possible, but it ranges between 0mg/day (sometimes) - 400mg/day. I've never had problems with addiction. I do get the headaches tho - forgot about that.

Yes she was convinced there was someone in the room with her when there wasn't and she is the most rational person I know but she persevered as she was in so much pain. It is so strange that people react totally differently to drugs. I am on the highest dose of Cocodamal and had no side effects after the first two weeks, one friend blacked out twice and the other friend couldn't keep her eyes open yet both could take tramadol which knocked me for six.x

Yea pain relieve is there with tramadol but the side affects are terrible plus when you come of them you get cold turkey I thought I see a ghost in my room once I always try to help people when I’m allowed too with what kind of medication is best Tramadol ain’t one of them

Goodness! Cold turkey is a bad idea for any opioid or opiate!

I would never take tramadol again. I switched as soon as I could.

Yup. I find that it makes it hard to pee! Takes me ages. Also drowsiness, a bit of dopeyness, etc.

Not what you're looking for?
