I think I love my new pain medication. I took it 6 hours ago, and it's still working. And I have no side effects. I can move! I can type! I can drive my car!

Tramadol. He originally offered vicodin or codeine, but they both make me hallucinate so I was a little loathe to use them. I was actually brave and asked about tramadol on my own...

Tramadol is good for the pain control (it's what K's on) and can, for more effectiveness, be taken with Tylenol. ('Course, you would probably want to clear that with the doctor-type-person first.)

Glad it is working so well for you. I'm also glad to hear you asked on your own. Sadly, most people with FM have to be their own advocates. K and I were thinking we should get you a list of books that we've found to be very helpful.
