Hi Lene-Alice I have taken tramadol for a while now, I am able to reduce my dosage from 4 a day to 3 when I,m good so that i can up again when I,m not, I have paracetamol with them to take the edge off pain, I havnt got to stage of a mobility scooter but i have a walking frame on 4 wheels with a seat and basket, is it really fibro that has knocked you off your feet? How did you get so bad? any help offered from medics at all?
