Tramadol


Had to go to my doctor yesterday due to a recurring headache.  First time I've had a chance to tell him I've been off of Tramadol for nearly 3 months (he wanted to put me on them again for my headaches)..I told him "no" and why and he repeated the mantra that tramadol is not addictive.  "perhaps not when used as directed, but I can tell you case after case of people i know who have become addicted to it  and go through worse withdrawls than many other opiates.  He was quite surprised.  Told him I'm off them, cancelled all my refills and never again unless I have serioius injuries.

At any rate, he thinks my recurring headaches (I've had this one for about 2 weeks) are stress related and I think he's right..not that I'm under any stress of course.

"on the road again"

If you bring Neil Diamond you can bring "September Morn'" and "Forever in Blue Jeans" and maybe "Sweet Caroline" a fun song to sing along with at a Red Sox game
