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.

Yes, I agree, tramadol is very good for burning type pain.
I am glad it is working for you.

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.

I had nausea the first two doses of Tramadol.
That went away, quickly.

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.). http://www.drugs.com/interactions-ch...=2221-0,168-74
