thanks Lintz, I am taking it at nighttime but boy oh boy, I feel like something snuck some LSD into my oj!!! Driving to work this morning was really scary!! I was to afraid to even change lanes because I couldn't get a grip on where the other cars were!! Everything is all distorted and funny looking. I feel like I'm moving in slow motion but my pulse and heartrate feel really high. I'm not liking this one little bit!!!!   I'm already on Zoloft and I think its just too much. I see the dr tomorrow for another treatment so I'll talk to him about it then. I'm SO, SO tired, I went to bed at 7pm last night but didn't get any good sleep, I was very restless and tossed and turned all night! My eyes are all puffy and red today.
Have you even taken the ultram?? I guess I don't really feel like its doing much of anything. I ended up taking a couple of Darvocet last night before bed.
Just so everyone doesn't worry, I won't be on-line again after today until like next Tuesday! I have treatments scheduled for tomorrow, they are closed friday and I'm taking the day off to rest. Than I have treatments scheduled Monday, Wednesday and Fridays for the following 2 weeks. The days I have the treatments, I'm not allowed to work, so home to bed for me.
We were supposed to go up north to visit family for turkey day but we are staying home now. I'm in no condition for a 4 hour car ride one way! Will went out and bought a turkey yesterday so he will make us dinner on Thursday!
I still haven't seen AF!!! She is offically late now. They did a blood test on Friday and they said it was negative even though the hospital got a slight positive on the urine test. Ok, so what exactly is a slight positive??!! I will retest Wednesday am before I go get my treatments!

Yikes, you've REALLY got the side effects bad, haven't you?!? They should ease down after a week or so, but I guess you might not think it's worth it!
Ask your doc about Ultracet if you don't feel the Ultram's helping enough. Ultracet has acetaminophen in it (like Darvocet) as well as the tramadol. The tramadol supposed to be a lot healthier to take than opiates and is supposed to act in a similar way, but I don't think it has such a mental affect (making you not care about the pain and not notice it so much), which might be why you prefer the Darvocet so much.

I've used Ultracet before and found it to be ok for mild pain but I'm having some SERIOUS pain now! I've been taking the ultram during the day so I'm not anymore loopey and taking the Darvocet at night. I get another treatment tomorrow and that should cut the pain some more.
I can't belive how swellon and black and blue my foot still is!!! So, not only do I have severe ankle sprian pain but I've also got burning, cramping pain from the RSD! Somebody just shot me, ok??!!
