I take tramadol for back pain due to scoliosis. It works wonders for me. I can't stand the feeling I get from narcotics.

Tramadol actually gives me lots of energy during the day and helps me sleep at night. I also have restless leg syndrome. It takes care of all of it. I have been on it for 4 years now.

The only downsides are the crash u get when you wait too long for the next doese and withdrawals. The withdrawals are bad enough to kill you. I stopped taking it when I got pregnant and had to be hospitalized for a week and be put on IV stadol to get rid of withdrawals.

I stopped taking it again when I could no longer afford it and ended up in the hospital again. I had migraines, severe panic attacks, I lashed out at my kids and actually hated them.

I have never been so angry and shaky in my life. It's an absolute nightmare. But as long as you don't stop cold turkey it's great. I still have mood swings when the drug starts to wear off and I still get occasional headaches but nothing near as bad as I had when I wasn't taking it.

I also have depression and bipolar disorder which also adds to the rage and irritability that I have. I can't say whether or not the tramadol makes them worse or better because I do not know.

I am not currently on meds for the bipolar and depression so once I start taking meds for that we'll see how it all works. But as far as my pain goes, it is non-existent with tramadol. It works better than narcotics and with less side effects but it is just as addicting.

I have chronic lumbar pain due to a torn ligament and some spinal arthritis, knee pain, restless leg syndrome, hydrosalpinx, and kidney stones. This drug has helped me to function without fail on all symptoms. However, when I cease taking it, I have insomnia and sweat like all get out! Withdrwal is a nightmare for me.

helped with my back pain for years now.

I have been taking tramadol for 2 years now. Before I found this medication, I couldn't even walk around our block. I gained nearly 100 lbs because i was in so much pain all the time and nothing i took worked. I'd spend all day in bed. Doctors wouldn't prescribe narcotics because they're "addictive".

I found this medication and it has given me my life back. I have lost the 100 lbs I'd gained - due to me being able to get out and exercise now, rather than laying in bed in pain. My children have their mother back, my husband has his wife back, and I have my life back. Truly a miracle drug - EVERYONE I have told about it and who has tried it has been amazed at how well it works.

I am very satisfied with the pain relief, however I experience nausea and vertigo and dizziness the next day.

Drug Reviewer: Davydd2, 65-74 Male on Treatment for 6 months to less than 1 year (Patient)

I have chronic pain about level 8 with this drug my pain level is between 4 and 6. I take 50 mg morning and night with two more tablets when things really get bad most of the time two a day does the trick but the availability to take the additional is great. I have experienced some nausea and itching early in my taking this drug but the reduction of the pain was well worth the minor inconvenience. I have taken Ultram and got very little help; however the tramadol works great.

My doctor gave me this medecine in combination with celebrex in order to manage my pain and works very good after few years using others.

Drug Reviewer: NurseBritt, 19-24 Female on Treatment for 1 to less than 2 years (Caregiver)

I absolutely love this medication. As a nurse, I have access of knowledge about many different kinds of medication. Tramadol works just like any opiate, but is not classified as an opioid. Therefore, this medication is NOT a narcotic, but acts as one. This medication, also, does not contain addicting properties.
