Hi Peter,
The issue with my former chronic pain is totally cleared up now, so I'm not worried about that.
My own personal experience is that codeine has almost no effect on me (other than increasing drowsiness), it certainly isn't useful in fighting pain unless taken in very large doses.
Since my "tramadol incident" a few years ago I don't like to take *any* opiates, codeine included, unless absolutely necessary - I think the only time I've taken any medication including codeine since was when I herniated several discs last summer and was in total agony.
Certainly right now, as tramadol is much more effective for me than codeine, it's a case of taking as little tramadol as possible and still be effective, heh.
