Pain
"I was prescribed tramadol for a torn rotator cuff and bursal tear in my right shoulder and another tear in my left. I can say it helps a little with nerve pain and it did help my mood if I was doing absolutely nothing at all.  In short this medication was not worth the trip to the doctor for my circumstance. Happy that it does work for many people. I was also given Ultram extended release at another time which made me sick and gave me insomnia. I was crying in pain at the doctor&#039;s office door before they opened with no sleep and ready to puke. This was my worst experience with any medication in my life."
