Tramadol side effects

I'm on 50mg slow release tramadol twice a day. I have really painful muscle pain in my hamstring and calf muscle since taking them. Does this side effect to away or get worse the longer I'm on them? If anyone else is on them do you wake up with bad cluster headache and feeling sick?

Yes I stretch my calf muscles. Never had a problem with them when I was on them before. Hopefully it will calm down.

I have been fortunate with tramadol I don’t get any side effects even when I first started on them and I take 150mg per day, I have heard of some people though who do feel nauseous when they start taking them. I hope it settles down soon for you hun

Hi I take exactly the same dose as you & have found them great for pain, but over the last couple of months I've been getting really bad side effects, but not the same as yours! Seriously bad sweating & dry mouth, unable to sleep, terrible itching & nausea. I'm seeing my GP on weds to see if I can try something else.
