I wouldn't be out of bed without them. I have researched Tramadol and discussed it with my GP and it is one of the "better" drugs for long term pain control. You simply can't function if you are in chronic severe pain no matter how you feel about drugs. All you can do is try to find one with the least long term side effects that still manages the pain and accept you are doing your best and what is necessary.

...yet you have passed judgement on myself and other that choose a lil' bit of weed instead?
I was on those (plus other legal drugs) for nearly a decade...ffs, be aware of what you're about to endure when coming off, plus the longer lasting effects! I wouldn't wish it on many...some, but not many

I was biting my tongue, but I am glad ya said something. I have a well established connection with addiction and recovery services, cannabis is WAY down the bottom of the scale of harm causing drugs. Next to coffee.

It's efficacy however, in comparison can make many lives bearable without having to submit to narcotic drugs.

From 8 years old until my early thirties I suffered from debilitating migraines after a head injury. The answer is yes it can help, also for nausea/vomiting which is often a problem for migraine sufferers.

I haven't had one for a few years now, I'm touching wood. They did start lessening in severity through my twenties if that is any encouragement Newbi.

Sorry, but Edbear only causes migranes - not cures them.

Thanks for that, i'm past my twenties, unfortunately lol, well i might just give it a try. Had a bad migraine yesterday and did throw up in the morning, and I have tried so many different drugs and lots of them to no avail.
