Anyway i have been on 200 mg x 2 Tramadol slow release since the start of this rotten disease, about 4 years and even though i felt pretty good a while back, i asked if i could try to stop taking the tramadol, but my doc was of the opinion " if its working good stay with them " so i did and seeing i needed pain relief for my hip, but 4 days ago i run right out of tramadol and i never got any replacements since, i don't feel any worse, no differant at all really, i think its had time to get out of my system, so i am pretty bloody happy about that So if anyone tells you your nerves can't regenerate, tell them that's crap, if they are in the right environment, they can.
all the best
