Yea...this is the time when you will have the bad things from Ultram happen.....Will your shipment still show up ?

You should tell a doctor....And if your shipment doesnt come you will really be in danger.......

You should then go to doctor even if your shipment does show up....B/C this could happen again.....You should take advantage of this wake up call.....

Good Luck....Keep us posted

ohhhh boy goingtomakeit is right your biggest risk is sezuires from coming off of that much CT.Hot baths and electric blanket if you have one for the aches and chills.  It seems to calm RLS at bit as well.You most likely wont be sleeping tonight .Did you have muscle spazms when you were taking them alot of people that have them while they used tend to can have bad ones durning WD when they finally do sleep .It  is  going to be pretty bad but I am hoping you will be ok.

Yeah Tramadol, or ultram, I was told it was non-narcotic.  I don't have much experience with those I was on the fenanyl patches which are pure he11 to get off of.  Shabbycat has experience with tramadol, take a look at her information.
