pain
"I am a runner and had strained my back during training.  I was taking 4 advils at a time for weeks and even though I was popping them like M&M's, o as still suffering.  My doctor prescribed Tramadol 50mg 1-2 pills every 6 hours and took the pain away immediately!!! The side effect I had were slight headache and it made me little loopy but it outweighed the back pain I was experiencing so I was happy with it.  Don't plan on taking this long term but it was the only thing that worked for me."
