Anxiety
"Doctor prescribed as an alternative to narcotics for pain from herniated disk in neck. Doesn&#039;t eliminate pain, but makes it tolerable. Best thing is I am not in some narcotic fog and life can continue. I was also taking lexapro for some general anxiety.  Lexapro and Tramadol are not recommended together so with Dr. we decided to eliminate Lexapro. I was never a fan due to weight gain and if I missed a dose at night I would have uncomfortable sweating and head zingers. It wasn&#039;t fun for the first week without Lexapro due to withdrawal! Didn&#039;t expect the nausea, sweats, feeling of extreme heat, head fog...feeling much more balanced and steady, and reduced pain with just Tramadol!"
