Advice & Tips
Not very impressed. It works, but kind of like taking a Tylenol back before I had Fibro. Doesn't work well alone, but knocks the sharp edges off the pain when combined with a vicodin.

Advice & Tips
Helps drop my pain levels from 7-8 down to a 4-6. Doesn't always work when my pain is at its worst, but it helps quite a bit.

Advice & Tips
In the beginning this medicine made me ITCH like crazy. It also made me dizzy, drowsy and increased my brain fog. I only take it when I absolutely have so much pain that I can't move. It does kill the pain, but I do NOT really like how I feel the first hour or so after it kicks in.

Advice & Tips
Been taking this every day since last winter, helps to take the edge off, does not take the pain away, but definitely makes it more tolerable. Medicaid screwed up my paperwork, so going cold turkey on this and like four other meds. Not sure which withdrawals are from what, but I feel like hell. Pain through the roof, depression, exhaustion. Very difficult. Hope they get it fixed soon, though I am not sure which meds I will continue, I am afraid of this happening again, and I have been completely non-functional for over a week now.

Advice & Tips
Makes me nauseous, hence the naausea meds with it. Still nauseous, even with the meds, but bearable. Dulls the pain, or makes me stupid enough not to care. Do not like to drive or take the kids out by myself on this dose, as it makes me absent minded and makes it hard to concentrate. Not sure is this is the med or the fibro, but either way its annoying.

Advice & Tips
Takes the edge off for awhile, but gives me a wicked "hangover" headache when it wears off. makes me pretty nauseous and very tired, usually take it and go to bed.

I realized very little effect on my pain. I believe over the counter Ibuprophen offered me more relief than Ultram or Tramadol.
