Tramadol I Have Lived With Severe Chronic Pain For 8 Years Now The Laws Changed Wa State
UpdatedI have a low tolerance to pain and a high tolerance to opoids. 8 years ago I hurt my back, suffered a Lisfranc fracture of left foot with med-foot fusion, and now permanent nerve damage down my left leg due to complications. Wa. St. legislature has decided that they know better about my pain than I or my DR do. I have been forced to reduce to 90 Mg total per day and am in severe pain again, and now have arthritis in my left hip as well. Will Tramadol or something else help me? I cannot stand this pain anymore, I can barely walk. And where do I get it? Thank you

Hello, JR! How are you? I am so sorry that you're in pain!
What are you taking? You said you'd been cut to 90mgs, but didn't mention the medication.
Tramadol is a prescription medication, so it would have to be prescribed by your doctor.
This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.
I live in WA state. There are pain clinics that prescribe adequate pain relief here. I have had to switch several times because I am on medicaid, but always manage to find a clinic that will accept me. Just know that they have to make you do a UA when you get your script every month. After awhile they only make you come in every 3 months and your scripts are written and dated so you only have to return to get a new one in 3 months. I am reading such horrible horror stories here. I sincerely pray and bless anyone who has to endure that kind of life.
