I have also take Ultram and not noticed any of those side effects...There is

a stomach virus going around, so maybe it was just a coincidence and its

that, and not from the meds

Who else is on this drug??? What have your side effects been & did they

go away???

My doctor prescribed this to me the other day...100 mg & then in a week

I will go to 200 mg. I felt great during the day...I actually had

ENERGY & got a lot done. I started feeling sick around 2am & when I

woke up the next morning was very very naseous & was vomiting. Is this

normal? Is this something that will go away once I am used to it?

It's hard b/c my orthopaedist & primary care doctor are contradicting

each other. But my orthopaedist seems to listen to me more about

everything. I am not sure my primary care doctor really thinks I have

it. She ran all kinds of blood tests. The nurse had a hard time getting

my blood. I think she had to stick me about 5 times to get enough blood

for the tests. That has never happened before...but my blood would not

go into the vials. I have really bad bruising now & my elbows are

KILLING ME after that. That & my IBS is really acting up...that's so

embarrassing!

Nope...it's not because I only work around animals all day or on my farm...so I

would not

have been around anyone to contract it. That & the fact that I NEVER get sick.

nausea is a common side effect. I too did not realize

it with my first script, but found out shortly after

my first doses.

it does have a lot of side effect. what is your daily

dose/

Honestly, I do not take all the time. Maybe I should so I don't flare up as

bad. I take it when I am in extreme pain. My doc. has prescribed 50mg than as

needed. But when I am in pain, I take between 150 to 200 mg at one time.

[Guest guest]

I am told to take 100mg once per day for 1 week and then go to 200 mg once per

day. I

am not sick until a few hours before it wears off. Before then I feel fine, but

it hits me right

when I have to wake up & then I don't feel good until noon. Is the nausea (sp?)

something

that will go away as I get used to it?
