ibromyalgia
"I managed my fibromyalgia pain for many years with exercise/rest and stress management, although always in some pain and with fatigue.  I was prescribed Tramadol three months ago when the morning pain, back pain and overall fatigue was greatly diminishing my quality of life (ability to roll over or get out of bed, exercise, do housework, focus on the job, and feelings of helplessness).  When I took it I immediately realized how the rest of the word lives-relatively pain free, with better mood more energy.  My morning pain is horrible, so  I may need to take it in the night or get another medicine to help,  I am usually relieved of the pain and stiffness within an hour and a half after taking it.  Amazing!  I do feel a little dizzy and lightheaded."
