no, i never took ultram. i took amitryptylene(elevil) for a few years and it helped with the pain especially at night. i have become much more numb since then and the pain has decreased, except when i stand or walk it always feels like im standing on broken bones in my feet. nothing touches that pain.

from time to time i take benedryl when my feet hurt when i lay down to go to sleep. i also use melatonin at night to get to sleep.

i also use interferential therapy ( sorta like tens) in a divided foot bath. its the only way i can feel it.

by the way i live on the same sandbar
