pain
"I have been on Tapentadol for about 2 months as well as taking numerous amounts of other medicines.  I have found that it does help with my lower back pain but I am struggling with some side effects like constantly feeling tired and lack of energy.  I have found that to help sleep at night I take Endep. This helps with sleep but when I first took it I had bad nightmares but they have gone now.  Before Tapentadol I was in constant pain ranging from 10 to an 8 my pain levels have now dropped to a 4 to 5 on bad days and good days 2 to a 4 which for me is worth battling with some small side effects."
