I think you should use the plain Ultram. Using too much
paracetamol (tylenol) is problematic these days.

To get adequate amounts of the tramadol, you'll be taking alot of the tylenol.

They only made that product to extend the patent on the Tramadol longer. The paracetamol is not really needed.

Tramadol starts at 50mg... your Ultracet is below that amount, forcing you to take 2.

thanks mrs D :)

Bob, Your on quite a bit more Lyrica then me. What your side effects like? I'm really tired at 150mg 2Xdaily.

Well me feet were really burning again so I took 2 tablets (75mg)
knocked the burning out straight away. wow its extremely effective, still going nearly 12 hours later.
Also noticed decreased appetite

Yes, I agree, tramadol is very good for burning type pain.

I am glad it is working for you.

No side effects that I'm aware of.
I'm up at 7:15 a.m. and work til 5:30, 6 days a week.
Neither tramadol or Lyrica give me any s/e except for weight gain from Lyrica and also stopping smoking last summer.
No fuzziness or lethargy and good pain control from burning. I also use 'Icy Hot' or 'Biofreeze' in the a.m. before going to work and sometimes before bed.

the tramadol made me feel a tad nauseous. Especially now that its waring off probably because was first dose. There is one drawback the heat has been replaced with cold and numbness where the burning was the worst.
still prefer icy feeling any day.
Bob did you add tramadol after the Lyrica? have you tried just tramadol ?
it may be all you need

I had nausea the first two doses of Tramadol.

That went away, quickly.

Thanks Mrs D . was a tad worried. Do you know how it interacts with elavil?
are they an okay combo?

should be okay with Elavil, as long as Elavil is low dose.

Raise the Elavil dose and you would get more serotonin issues, which "may" interact with tramadol. Most of this interaction is dose dependent. But I used to see people take both all the time with no problems (with Elavil in low dose.).
