Hi Jeanne, Awesome that you are having such relief from all the fun pain. I tried Lyrica - it did nothing for me - again, we are all different, but I am going to ask my doctor about the Tramadol. Yep, it would be worth adding yet another drug to my current cocktail if it helped!

I find that I am very stiff with pain late night and early morning, especially when turning in bed. I think I may ask my neur. about Tramadol to add and see if that helps. Thanks for the information. Valerie in Illinois Hi, Valerie! The Lyrica and Tramadol combination along with the Cymbalta has enabled me to do more than I have for 3 1/2 years. I can do my housework and not even think about the pain. There is still some stiffness and coldness but I don't feel the acid/hot/cold/excruciating 24/7 pain as I did before. Now, today, I missed the noon Tramadol and sure enough, the pain came through loud and clear so it definitely does help! I sure do hope and pray it works for you!! Jeanne in Dayton, WA
