Sure hope you feel better, mrsD.
I only had the nausea once...when I took a full 50mg that first time. It came more than an hour later...like a tidal wave. I just took slow deep breaths and it passed fairly quickly. But I came very close to hurling at one point! When your saliva goes bonkers...I start getting ready to run to the bathroom..but this nausea did pass and didn't last too long.

I use topical things for my pain in my feet. When my legs and lower back start up (major aching)..that is when I reach for the Ultram.

That "tripping" was really unpleasant. So much so my shy cat came in and sensed it and sat on me thru the whole thing (like I needed THAT!) She would get off when I rolled over, then climb right back on!
She rarely does that, only mostly on vacation when it is cold up there.

I can't imagine people choosing recreational drugs to "trip" and get high... I found it endless timewise (lasted til about 4am), and very very unpleasant!
