Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Hi, I just read in the current Arthritis Today that Tramadol can cause constipation and loss of appetite. I had never been told this, even though I complained about difficulty in the tush. Recently, the neurologist announced that I was significantly malnourished, and I suddenly realized that I couldn't remember the last time I felt hungry. I'm eating on schedule, and I can easily forget dinner if I'm deep enough in my work. I don't recall such problems before I started tramadol, which I've been taking for three years and change. I'd been taking four, and I've cut down to two per day. I left a message for my primary to call me about certain questions. Is the hearing loss sensineural or conductive? Does my bursitis diagnosis still stand? My shoulders still hurt, and raising my arms is unpleasant. What about fibro? I still have pains pop up everywhere. And I love this group! I have two days before I can sound off on those issues (do I sound annoyed? ). I'm glad I can vent here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
