The Official Tramadol Discussion Thread

Yes, tramadol definitely reduces my appetite to the point where I simply can't eat, if I take 400 mg throughout the day. It almost becomes an issue, because my blood sugar levels drop, and then I'll have to force some food down. Also, you can be almost sure that any weight lost this way will probably come back when you stop taking tramadol.

I am not comfortable taking the maximum dose, but somehow I've done it 2 days per the week anyways. It messes up my sleeping pattern: even if I take the last dose in the late afternoon, I wake up in the middle of the night (like right now) and feel completely refreshed. I will crash before morning though, so tramadol is not good for regular sleeping patterns (which are essential in my book).
 
Do you need to "warm up" (maybe let me know if there's better word ;) ) opiate receptors before expiriencig the full tramadol effect?

I mean:
If you take "natural" opiate, like codeine (the only one I've tried) you don't feel full (or even any) effects for first times. After few tries, you feel what you were meant to feel. I've named this "warming up the opiate receptors".

Will you feel any different if you had your opiate receptors warmed up before trying tramadol than if it's your first time with opoids?

I hope I'm understandable :p

And whoever said Trams are better than MDMA you are fucking stupid and have clearly never done real MDMA.

Clearly you are fucking stupid for thinking someone elses opinion/preference is "fucking stupid". I can take tramadol every day without losing any real effect, and to me, MDMA feels like a very short-lived, artificial high, whereas tramadol feels almost natural to me. Did you ever think that maybe I just don't like speedy drugs? Or maybe I don't like being all lovey-dovey? Man, people like you really push my buttons.

Today someone stole my tramadol, and I'm about ready to flip dick on someone. I even know who did it, and here's the stupid thing - they didn't take them all, they left like 25 in the bottle, but got them all wet, and now they're like a mushy powder lump. I swear, if murder were legal, I'd be a murderer.

a few years ago my wifes "best friend" asked me for one of my prescribed tramadols for a headache. I needed these for a pinched nerve. I told her she could have two but no more cause i was still a few weeks from refill and was almost out. She saw where i put them and then later int eh evening was in my room un attended for a few minutes. I thought i could trust her cause she was my wifes best friend. Well i was wrong, later that night i went to get one for genuine pain releif and ALL of them were gone. To think i let her have some of the pills i NEEDED cause i was trying to be nice nad she took advantage and left me in a real lurch. I had severe pain that went un treated for 2 weeks until i could get a refill. heartless bitch. then when i contronted her she denied it even though she was obviously blasted on my tram the rest of the night. I could tell cause when everyone else was ready for bed she had pin point pupils and couldn't sleep also she kept going to the bathroom and running the water and making a lot of noise before coming out sniffling. Pretty sure she was in there snorting the meds i needed to live day to day with out pain.

Needless to say she was not welcomed in my home again after that. Her and my wife are no longer friends either. fucking cunt, im still bent over it.
 
Tramadol, IME, has been pretty godamn great. Its a really unpredictable drug. because sometimes it can be as good as oxy and sometimes it can be pretty shitty. The only problems i've had with it are when i have to move around on it, at least when i dose anywhere above 100 mg. I just get really nauseaus when i have to move around on it. Lying down on my bed with a good playlist can be heaven tho.
 
It is good, awesome high, you get used to it and its speedy. It can turn on you in a second. And according to my bf, I'm not me at all on it. "Annoying Retarded Zombie"
 
I found I could fuck like a porn star on it. My dick would stay rock hard for hours. I could still climax but it took a while, usually long after my wife came multiple times.

Man, my heart goes out to you. Just reading that pisses me off. The worst thing about my situation is that I live in a shelter (trying to get my life together), and there's nothing I can do about it. I can't get a refill until probably the 24th of this month, so I just have to fucking suffer. And the whole issue started because of my kindness to another person, like you. I let someone have a couple to help them out, and after everyone in the shelter went to sleep, he went into my backpack and took most of them, but somehow got the ones that he left wet! I don't even know how he did that. I credit my taking tramadol with my sobriety, so this is really frustrating. I hope I don't fucking slip up because of this. As long as I take it, I won't use other drugs. So now I don't know what I'm going to do.

I love being an "annoying retarded zombie". Maybe you should break up with your boyfriend and we should get together. Then again...two zombies would be kinda weird. We'd go out on dates to restaraunts and just stare into space until the waiter came, then when he'd ask us what we wanted we'd both stare at him until he asked a 2nd or 3rd time, then we'd go "uh, what?" Oh, man, it would be great for comical situations, though.
 
Oh, yeah, I meant to say: for anyone who says that it's "non-narcotic" and a "bullshit drug" - my best friend just failed a drug test for opiates today when he went to his probation appointment. The ONLY thing he has taken is tramadol, and he only takes 50mg once or twice a day, and not even every day.

I feel for him. I shouldn't do it for days at a time. And I'm totally aware that I'm annoying. I want to shut up, REALLY. I annoy MYSELF! But I can't. He does better with me if hes doing it but C'est la vie. It's a small thing.
Doing weed with it, FUCK. I nod out and then wake up and start talking in the middle of the conversations in my head. ....Not so great in the middle of intimate moments.
 
i have mixed feelings on Trams
I have legit back pain, Yet another MRI on the 12th (shutter) Until they figure what wrong all they will give me is Trams 50mg. I should be taking 1 3X a day per doc, but 1 has no effect on me what so ever, The last few night if find that if i take 175mg and .5mg of my xanax it helps a bit. But Im still in pain. I am very nervous about the seizing part so I will only take them at night when my husband is home (as I have 2 small kids)

Im just stuck now, Im in a ton of pain all day gets worse at night cause Im picking up little ones all day, and I hate that I have to take so much of the tram to work not to mention mixing it with the xanax......

I dont want to tell the doc Im taking 4 at once and risk him thinking Im abusing and want heaver stuff, but im a lot of pain

I dont know I guess im stuck.....any ideas sugestions ?

Well, to help you out, if you take the trams by redosing, they actually work better. They have a higher bioavailibility when some of it is already in you system. Also, taking xanax will not only reduce your siezure threshold, but it may also increase the effects of the trams.

What dose does your doctor have you on right now?
 
im on 1 50mg every 8 hours.......the first 2 days i was on them i took as perscribed and no effect, can i take motrin with them?
 
Yes, you can take motrin with them, its safe. It'll help relieve more of your pain. If you want to get the most out of your dosage, then take one of them. Wait about a good hour to an hour and a half and take the rest of them. This should relieve most of your pain for a good 6 - 8 hours.

Goodluck
 
Tramadol did absolutely nothing for me, recreationally it was a useless substance. I was prescribed it for a motorbike accident, so it did help with the pain but thats all it did.
 
The risks of seizures have been greatly exaggerated. You have to hit the 400 mg mark a day before it becomes a concern. The only people who should be careful using lower doses are individuals with a history of seizures.

People have a tendency to cry wolf just after reading a warning label somewhere, which would be fine, if it didn't cause so much unnecessary fear and confusion.
 
yup yup but this IS harm reduction. 800mg was normal for me in one shot at some times. Hitting 1 gram...you will puke and likely feel more like shit than you will good.
Also, watch out for teeth clenching, it's like E, it can do damage.
I have a mouth guard made for me. But not everyone can afford a $200 piece of plastic.
Chewing gum is good and kicks the dry mouth.

This is a tricky drug, either you love it or you hate it or it doesn't do anything for you. It has to do with the enzymes your body produces I believe.
Have fun, stay safe. :) (Sorry if this rambles...on Tram, big surprise.)
 
yeah, kinda. It's a clear plastic that is less rubbery than sports mouth guards and molds to your teeth better. It's done by your dentist. It has a ramp like thing on it that keeps you teeth just a little bit apart. I have cracked back teeth from car accidents and I don't want to have to crown them. Clenching cracks them more and causes a lot of pain. The mouth guard protects my very expensive, crafted smile.
 
Coke?

I've taken OC a bunch and got my hands on loads of Tramadol. I can't figure out how anyone can take more than 50mg!

I take one at 1pm and I'm up til 1am at least. It's like cocaine! I also get these lite throbs in my temples every half hour or so. Is this at all normal? I'd like to see where these 'euphoric' feelings come into play, but I'm petrified to take more than 1 50mg pill. Any help would be appreciated.
