Back Pain
"I have been taking Tramadol for about 4 years for spinal stenosis and now Rheumatoid Arthritis.  Tramadol works very well for me.  I have the 50mgs.  I generally take 2, 3 times per day.  It used to be less but I guess I&#039;ve built up some type of tolerance since this is all they give me and it is most ineffective on the RA attacks.  When that happens I have to take 6, just to be able to lay down.  The attacks usually last about 3 days and the Prednisone helps a great deal once it kicks in, I can go back to taking 2.  I&#039;m thankful for this medication but just recently (the past two months) I have noticed a change in the Tramadol.  I break out in sweats, feel feverish, lots of aches and feel very hungry all the time and no, its no, its not me."
