Tramadol works on the same receptors that the subs attach to, hence the tramadol won't work as vicki said. You most likely won't go into w/d. Have you tried any herbal pain remedies such as cinnamon or turmeric. Both of these help to reduce inflammation which causes pain. I was on massive dosage of oxy to control my pain but since I got clean I have searched for alternative ways to control my pain and have found that there herbs really helped. Take a look at the article below it explains the hows & whys:

Hi- There are not any doctors here...

Tramadol won't work because you already take Sub which covers your receptors and disallows any opiate from penetrating. Although Tramadol is not a true opiate, it is "opiate like" in this case.
