"i was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis 2 years ago. at the same time i was in early recovery for addiction to pain killers (prescribed for pain,if your pain never stops you continue to use as prescribed and you are addicted). i had to have something so my doctor told me about tramadol. i take 4-6 50 mg a day for pain. no side effects. don&#039;t know how i would have got along without it."
