 I take utram 300mg once a day in the morning and it seems to help. It keeps me from having to take the percocet. I take flexeril 10mg if my shoulder and neck start to fill tight and if that doesn't seem to help or I have any s/s of a headache---I take percocet, cut only if I have tried everything else.

Hope this helps,

Sandi

 ULTRAM,ULTRACET OR SOMA, I have not taken them in years. My evening is more like mamanordy, Klonopen, flexeril, sometimes even an eleval with a glass of wine. That is what I have to do sometimes to get any sleep.

 Hi, I am currently wineing.... but ultram, even tho I take it when the advil, tylenol arthritis and Aleeve don't seem to be doing anything, doesn't really help much at night. I usually take vicodin if I hurt really bad.

 I have Lora Tab for pain. I just don't seem to get much releif from the pain. I dont know what else they can do for me. I dont want to go to the pain med doc. There is only one in my area, and I do not like him. He only has one option for me. A morphine pump. I am not going to let them install some machine in me that gives me the medication. I want to be able to take it when I need it.

Sorry for going on and on.

 I take Ultram 2x's daily along with elavil,zanaflex, Naproxen,lyrica,effexor, wellbutain, and last but least Retlin. I can not say which one works good because I am in pain 24/7 and the best the I can do is try to deal with it. I do take Darvocet also but that is all my doctor will give me for pain.

 Most pain pills really do not work for me. I usually just opt for the Klonopin and have some wine or drink. I know that sounds awful but when I am in a lot of pain, what else is a girl to do?
