HI welcome back im sorry your back on these terms but at least you new where vto come for help...get out to walmart and pick up some highlands restful legs you have to look for it its in with the vitamins its in a small 2 in long by 3/4 in round tube if you look close you'll find it ...it has help many get thew this also wile ther pick up a calcium /magnesium/zinc
3 in one supplement it 6 buck for 250 take 4 in the morning and 4 at dinner time it takes a day or 2 to kick in but it helps a lot with the legs and should cut down on your withdrawals right know it late so your best bet is a good hot soak this will relax you and should help to settle down your legs...try not to get discouraged and hang in there...YOU CAN DO THIS its just going to take some perseverance good luck and God bless....Gnarly

If you have 24hr drug store nearby, get Hyland's Restful legs. I think the bottle recommends 2 pills under the tongue but I used 4 pills. For me it seems to work for a period of time so try to crash out as soon as you take them. Since your at the store you could try picking up some Meletonin and/or Valerian Root. Turn off all the lights, including the little lights from tv's, cell phones, dvd players, chargers, etc. if possible. Some people use heating pads but I always liked my legs cold for some reason. There's also hot baths with epsom salt if you have it, but becareful not to fall asleep in the tub like I did lol. Bannana's help too. Also, this is just me, but tylenol pm or benydryl or those sleep aids made it 10x worst for me, but that's just me. Also if you can't get any of the above try sleeping on a chair or sleep near the edge of your bed with your legs outside and feet touching the floor. Man am I having flashbacks lol. Keep it up, you're already this far... you might as well stay clean and quit the tramadols once and for all.

how long did you take them and at what dose? Tram can be dangerous to cold turkey, is that what you have done? Did you taper what you had? Did you quit the last time? or did you just happen to run out early and w/d untill refill time? and if so is that what you are asking now? like what can you do untill you get your refill? or are you tired of the cycle that you are so miserably in? It only get worse you. I hope you are asking us what can you do to be done with trams once and for all
