Paul has been prescribed Tramodol for pain. Finding   a pain reliever for a patient with a weakened liver is tricky. Doctor's choice  has to be one that does not do liver damage.  In this country it is hard to get anything decent for pain because they have demonized Codein.  It is ridiculous!  I do not think the gov't should tell me what to take for pain!  Tramodol is easy on the liver  and relieves pain. NO ASPIRIN.
