Take care

I also take tramadol, but my rheumy prescribed amitriptyline, one only on going to bed, this helps quite a lot x

I have amytriptyline to relax the nerve endings at night, to help me sleep. My GP put me on tramadol hydrochloride which is a 12 hour slow release, as the normal tramadol left me feeling nauseous, and also I was timing and waiting for the next dose every four hours, the 12 hour one helps me.

Maybe have an appt with GP to discuss what will work best for you and your symptoms.

I take tramadol amatriptyline sometimes my doctor gives me a few morphine tablets. Go and speak to your GP pain is so debilitating . I have a wonderful GP so am very lucky. Do go and talk to someone about your pain. Mary.x

Hi there Debby,

Just like the others I take Tramadol every 6 hours for pain and 50mg Amitriptyline at night to help with the pain and to help me to settle down to sleep. I also take Pregabalin which I am told is also to help with pain and Morphine patches which I change once a week. However, I do still suffer with stiffness and pain in my knee joints which I am waiting to see a musculoskeletal specialist about them.

If you go back to your GP or Rheumatologist perhaps you can see if they can put you on Amitriptyline too and see if it helps you.

Morphine patches and paracetamol (really know if I've missed either) morphine patches can be troublesome leading to withdrawal when the adhesive fails and the patch lifts, or too much when it gets hot. Won't have a problems with the latter for a few months now though.
