baratronToday = Tramadol Hangover Day. It's not actually a hangover, as even if I did drink alcohol, I would not be stupid enough to drink it with these particular painkillers. But it feels just like one.
Taking Tramadol several times a day does not produce a hangover, because every time my brain might want to start expanding to over-fill the space available inside my skull, I take another dose of a strong painkiller. Funnily enough, that stops it. But taking a single dose to relieve "omg, I hurt too much to even TRY sleeping"? Cue for a bad head the next day.
So my head is on fire & I have no ability for coherent thought. I have been posting lots of lj comments that say "Yes. That. Exactly." :)

Date: 2005-10-20 01:25 am (UTC)Neph and I both got tramadol-withdrawl itchies, though. If you can have any of them, it may be worth asking for a supply of one of the soluable forms? I don't think it's availible just in tablets. Anyway, then you can have half a dose of tramadol, instead of going cold-turkey. Worked pretty well for us. :)
