Uncomfortable one, YES! One of the withdrawal symptoms is increased pain. I think this is true when you are withdrawing from most any narcotic pain medication but, in my experience Tramadol was far worse than any other medication. As I described before, it was a terrible feeling and I thought I was going to die! That is why I want to get the word out to people about it. While I understand and believe that a lot of people use this medication and do absolutely fine, there are others who suffer in misery from taking it. I was one of the latter.
