Pain
"I take 1 to 2, 50mg tablets of tramadol a day (a very small dose) for a pulled nerve in my brachial plexis. I have been on it nearly a year. My prescription calls for me to take 1 to 2 tablets every 4 hours or as needed. I am able to get by on just 1 or 2 a day. I find tramadol not only relieves the dull pain in my neck and the other short-circuit issues one faces with a pulled nerve, but it also lightens my load, so to speak. In other words, I feel less anxious and overwhelmed when I&#039;m on it, but it&#039;s all very subtle. I don&#039;t feel like I&#039;m drugged out. I take a VERY small dose each day."
