Yes that would be lovely! I take 2 tramadol of 50 mg a day. Plus gabapentin 600 mg 4x/day for nerve pain. They definitely help, but pain is a daily companion for me in spite of the medication. Hope you can find some relief.

I am on 10mgs of Amitreptiline daily. It takes the edge off.

I'm currently on 25 mcg of BuTrans which is enough the take the worst away. I couldn't even titrate up on gabapentine. Not only did it make me dizzy but I started to hallucinate. Rather interesting hallucination byt I stopped it pdq before I stopped knowing that they were hallucinations.
