I have been taking 2 paracetamol plus 1 or 2 tramadol for pain three times a day for this past year does anyone else use this combination for pain ?? :?:

    Hi Wendy,

    I don't take tramadol but when I'm having a bad time I take paracetamol regularly - every six hours - I find it an excellent pain killer, for me.

    Hi
    I take paracetamol first then if after a few hours the pain hasn't gone I take a tramadol.
    However, I have found lately (even in the hot weather) that if my hips are playing up a long hot bath, so hot I can only just bare the heat - does wonders for me.

    Hi Wendy, I am taking Tramadol 200mg three times a day but won't take paracetamol as they don't work for me, I have bought a lavender wheatbag that you warm in the microwave, really help me love Jaspercatxx
