Pain
"I have been taking tramadol for almost 3 years now for a back injury and chostrocondritus of the chest.  I was told it was a strong NSAID, but found out later it was stronger.  I have never had &quot;addiction&quot; problems with this medication, I only take it when I need it.  The side effect I have trouble with is it makes me restless at night, sleepy/relaxed, but unable to stay asleep.  And mildy sleepy/crabby the day after.  But it does wonders for the pain I experience from my injury."
