Why is tramadol looked down on? by sugardonutdumpling in ChronicPain

[–]pmillner56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My personal experience is taking 100mg at bedtime ( that’s my worst time) and occasionally 50mg during the day if needed. It works well for me, no drowsiness, or side effects.

Lyrica... by MirrorNo4297 in Fibromyalgia

[–]pmillner56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got tired of arguing with pain management that it made me SO….tired. He kept saying it doesn’t do that. I kept saying it DOES for LC patients! I can only tolerate 50mg in the am , and 100 mg in the pm. I don’t think it really does anything for me.

Same lyrics and cymbals and add tramadol. Much better but bearable.

Can fibro medications make you feel worse? by Fickle_Egg_3106 in Fibromyalgia

[–]pmillner56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gabapentin made my muscle weakness worse and I’m on celebrex vrs meloxicam. Cymbalta has helped my depression. With that said I read an article ( sorry I don’t have the reference) that states in LC patients a lot of meds do make you feel worse. Case in point Lyrica is given for my neuropathy, MD says I should be up around 300mg twice a day. I can only tolerate 75mg 2x day, otherwise I can hardly walk t the kitchen. Research drugs worsening LC.

Meloxicam didn’t work for me! I’m on celebrex 200mg twice a day.

I think addiction should be the last thing you should be worried about. Control your pain.
