Tramadol Shortage (Page 28)

Does anyone know of a pharmacy with tramadol available? I tried ordering it but everyine keeps telling me its out of stock and not available until after the holidays. I run out of my rx today and can't wait until after the holidays so any help is appreciate it.

I have enjoyed being able to chat with everyone here. It really helps me to know that I am not alone with chronic pain. Being supported and supporting others is an invaluable tool in most chronic conditions. I just find it disturbing the way that posts are edited and/or removed. It seems like sharing the numbers "violates" the user agreement and may count as advertising (I cant find another rule that the sharing of numbers violates).

I discovered Tramadol by accident after my dentist gave it to me for a bad toothache. I noticed immediately that my Fibromyalgia pain, which was largely ignored by my doctors, was much improved. That was in 2003. I made the freshman mistake of increasing my dosage and ended up having 3 seizures, one at work (thank goodness I worked at a hospital). I have tapered down to 4-5/day, but my doc only prescribes for 4/day so sometimes I order more online. I've experienced the same problems getting an order since December. Some advice for the withdrawal: for restless legs, drink an undiluted 8-oz glass of Tonic Water (any brand) right before you lay down. Tonic Water containes quinine, which is a natural paralytic in a very dilute solution. It is highly effective for people with restless legs syndrome. Keep it in the fridge and drink it cold and quickly, it's bitter. Meds like Requip and Mirapex can also help, but you need to get a script for those. Also, get as much sleep as possible. Sleep is restorative to the body, and not getting enough sleep while taking Trams can lower your seizure threshold. I've been down the withdrawal road a few times, and it's no joke, I advise those taking mega-doses of Trams to taper down to a reasonable level. I wish that some drug company would come up with a med that is as effective as Tramadol for Fibro pain, without the nasty side effects and addictive factor. Maybe someday.

I noticed that too- the "reply" button disappeared. There have been a lot of issues with our posts being edited- mainly when trying to share contact info for pharmacies.

We had temporarily disabled posting new replies on this thread because we had to review it in more detail. We generally do not allow contact information of any kind to be posted on the discussion threads so as to protect individuals' privacy, and also to prevent any conflicts of interest if somebody is promoting an outside service for personal gain.

CP, you're not doing anything wrong. You are able to see the same posts as everyone else. Instead of asking why nobody's posting anything, why don't you share your story with everyone? How are you doing with this Tramadol shortage? Is everything ok for you?

Hi Roy I'd be happy to share- was just curious as the posts do not seem to be shown as quickly as they were before-I too have been greatly affected-fortunate not to have run out or have ever suffered any withdrawal- been on tramadol for 2 years-for knee replacements(one of which went horribly wrong)and also for chronic arthritis pain-and I limit myself to 3-some days 4 a day-but I am so furious and frustrated with the ridiculous obscene costs we are all now having to pay-156.95 for 120 pills?We are all so being taken advantage of-I'm fearful that we will all be shut off some day from purchasing this much-needed drug that brings so many of us relief from constant pain- I feel for everyone suffering out there and I wish there was something we could all do-My thoughts and heart go out to everyone who so desperately need this drug to be free of pain
