Heya big problem. I am trying to go cold turkey. I am taking Topamax and still on 1500mg of Tramadol. It's making me so sick. I've been feeling really bad for 6 months. So, my ranting here is about, well, it's part of my ranting. I really want some advice on what I could use to minimize the bad side effects and how long they will last. It's been a really busy week for a change and I have to go out, not with a blanket and sweats. I can't come off it bit by bit. I've been off it for 14 hours and I'm already hurting. I have read some not so pretty stories. I feel like I have a head cold. I wanted rehab but didn't get to go. Another story, not my fault. So, this is the hard way, the only way. I need to toss what's left out. Chemist, I suppose. Uh oh, it looks a bit crappy up there at the top. I've got to get back to myself, in a hurry. Any advice, good or bad, is welcome. Sorry for the spelling errors. What about Valium? My pain is bad around the stoma from the last surgery. Grrrrrrx. Marex. Would I have a cold now? Mare x.

If you have gone this long, and if there is any way you can get to a detox center, they can help you get medications like Suboxone or ReVia, which is known as Naltrexone. These are good for withdrawal symptoms and usually a one to two year plan to help with the cravings. I am currently withdrawing from Tramadol and Dilaudid, and my spouse is an addiction specialist. I hope this is helpful and good luck. Also, if you have to go illegal, find Cymbocin on the street or start baking with marijuana.

Thanx darl but I live in Australia and have no idea what medication you told me, sorry. Keep 'em comin', I need international medications, you know what I mean. Name changes, well at least someone answered. Thanx matey. Y'all this time, you should be better now, shouldn't you? Man, my nose is goin' too run away. Okay, it's been 2 days, no tramadol. I have had massive doses the last 3 years, 1500 probably more. Stopped bothering it. Actually, it comes in liquid form, so I um did just drink it after another. I have a lot here, I can't even try to go off it slow. I will be so ill if I try to slow it down. It's got to go, can't go rehab. Sad, but I help others relied upon for next few days. I promised (I know), crazy Australian. By the way, I want dope. It's in the mate's garden, he has cancer, it's for him. I don't touch the stuff, no meds for me. I need pain relief, but I have problems in that department. Dope ain't the way. Thanx, please tell me more darlz.
