back pain
"I was diagnosed with Spinal Stenosis after many years of untreated back pain (the pain would come and go over last 30 years). I was afraid to take Tramadol 50 mg when I read all the reviews and side effects. One thing I made my self understand is that everybody different.   After taking Tylenol for Arthritis, 650 mg, reg Tylenol 100 mg, to no avail. I opted for the Tramadol and pain was reduced (not eliminated) good enough for me to do normal functions. I have not tried walking long distance or standing long time yet. My Neuro Dr. prescribed physical therapy and Gabapentin( I am really afraid of Gabapentin's side effects) so I will stay with Tramadol and Physical Therapy for now."
