I've never done "drugs" and after surgery I was left with a large unused bottle of liquid hydrocodone. I stumbled upon Tramadol accidentally. It was prescribed to me after getting stitches. I filled the script "just in case." I have taken a handful of opiate in my lifetime mostly after a surgery and at the dentist.
I had stomach surgery and I can no longer take NSAIDS the rest of my life because it could cause ulcers. I had cramps and a migraine from hell and thought I would take a couple ibuprofen and I ended up feeling like my stomach was going to bleed out. It was the worst pain. I decided I would never do that again! So I hoarded my ultram and Norco for the next time I had killer cramps with a migraine.
Just like clock work my period came around and the crippling effects from cramps and a migraine showed up. I took one ultram and laid down. An hour later I was floating and I got up and was cooking, laughing and dancing in the kitchen. It gave me a strong euphoria and took away my lady pain.
Just like any other person you want to get that feeling back when it leaves so I took a second and "Smack" I ended up with this dreaded opiate feeling and I just slept. The party was over and there was no getting it back. Oh and it made me nauseated too. Not the fun I was expecting.
I went directly onto the internet and started my investigation. I found out that this drug has a wide range of effects on people. It appears people with no opiate history can actually enjoy this medication if you fall into a certain group.
I have tried this drug many different ways and this is my "Best Results" to achieve that original experience.
First of all, more does not get me "more." It gets me sick. Low doses work best and only if I haven't taken it in 3 days minimum. So basically it has to clear my system. **sad face**
I cut and take half a 50mg pill and enjoy with white grape juice and a cup of grapefruit.(when I first wake) I take the other half just before lunch. I can do this for two days and achieve that original feeling. The third day has diminishing returns.
12-24 hours after last does I have that dope sick feeling but not severe. Just a sad achey feeling that I work through with the steam room, hot-tub or physical labor. I get over it and I'm back to original status by Friday.
On Friday when I get off work I take my first half before dinner and slowly enjoy one glass of wine. I can stay euphoric most of the weekend but I'm back to Pooperville Monday morning.
I do not feel like I have an option to get more out of this drug personally. I only get desired effects for 2-3 days and it's gone and nothing will bring until it clears my system for a few days.
Clearly I could get high from hard drugs or even some street drugs but I do not want to get that started. I've never done street drugs or used opiates for fun and I do not plan to start. I'm like a mouse nibbling at a piece of cheese and I won't allow it to go further. If this little thing I have going ever ends I'll just let it go. The way I see it is that 3 ultram a week isn't going to put me on some watch list or cause me to loose my job or my life. It's just my sneaky little picker upper for the weekend.
Has anyone else experienced this or understand the chemistry behind this? It's definitely weird and something I've never heard anyone else experience.
