access,i think you ment-the mod. dont half of the forum before they start deleting ****. opps
how weird!! it did it again!! a s s e s? maybe that will work.
i dont know why they put stars on some of my words but i meant to write: go to the emergency room and let them ***** me.
i have been taking tramadol for around 5 years. anywhere from 4 to 20 a day. i usually take 6 at once. i cant bare the thought of running out. i have horrible withdrawals such as bad anxiety, brain zaps, nausia, and almost unbarable restless legs. i have tenncare insurance and it is very hard to find a rehab or doctor for detox or anything like that with state issued insurance. i talked to a man at vanderbuilt today and he said that the best thing to do is go to the emergecy room and let them ***** me to see if the withdrawals are bed enough to take my insurance. that is the most rediculous **** i have ever heard!! and i have to be having withdrawals before i go. when i start withdrawing i cant get myself off the couch so how the heck do they expect me to stop taking tramadol to start withdrawing and drive all the way across town, sit in the emergency room for hours and hours to even see a doctor and then not even know if they are going to help me or not. NO THANK YOU!! i need advice!!
I was addicted to Tramadol for 10 years. My dose at the end was 35-40, 50mg caps per day. I had to take them concurrently with Clobazam to prevent seizures. I have been off of them for 60 days now and still feel lethargic, depressed and my joints hurt like hell. I live in Indonesia (Tramadol is OTC here) and there is a plant called Kratom (Mitragina speciosa) that people use here to mitigate the effects of opiate withdrawl. It helped me tremendously to alleviate the mental torture and cramping associated with Tramadol withdrawl. Kratom however is an addictive drug in it's own right and must be viewed as a temporary tool for recovery. It is a controlled substance in some countries in S.E. Asia. It's also the most foul tasting stuff around. It is available on many internet sites in North America. I introduced Kratom slowly while reducing my daily in-take of Tramadol. See a doctor during this process and be utterly honest. I also used on-line Narcotics Anonymous meetings and they really do help. It's not just for junkies anymore. There are millions of Pharm-animals like us helping one another. I'm still on Xanax (1mg. per day) for depression but I hink NA helps more than anything. Best of luck to you.
