Aussie,
Thanks for the input. I am nervous about being on tramadol for my non-diabetic PN and that is why I asked the question. I was afraid that I was making the symptoms worse by using it. I had heard (not from a Doctor) that it worsened symptoms in some PN sufferers. I had to ask here on this forum because I knew I would get some good experience/examples if they were out there. So far neurontin (generic gabapentin) and tramadol are handling my pain in PN very well. I just have to be consistent with them. Thanks, Bear

I have been taking Tramadol since 1999-2000.
First, coupled with Gabapentin/Neurontin then,
and now (past 2-1/2 yrs) with Lyrica.
It has been the only pain med (& I've tried many)
that keep my PN pain & Sx under control.
