I take Tramadol as well and several doctors have told me if taken as prescribed there will be zero issues with it. In addition, I have had so many injections in two pain management clinics, most under anesthesia, that proved totally ineffectual that I have to acknowledge there is nothing further they can do for me. The nerve damage in my lower back and legs is permanent and is caused by spinal stenosis combined with the damage done by an ill trained surgeon who told me he could fix my issues. I refuse to take stronger opioids since I will not spend the rest of my life in la la land. Try a spinal stimulator. It did not work for me, but it might for you. I'd also recommend you go to a marijuana clinic with your health records and obtain a " Compassionate Use License " from the state. All the expense will be on you but I find some of the BCD alternatives help me. I do not like the heavy THC stuff since it makes me nauseous. There are choices between vape, oral and topical products. Be prepared to part with real money since the Feds do not allow any FDIC insured bank to handle transactions involving cannabis products. Therefore no credit or debit cards can be used and you can not write a check. I wish you luck, chronic pain I would not wish upon my most despised enemy.
