So... today was my first trial of tramadol. OMGoodness, it's MUCH better than oxycodone. No dizzyness.It did handle the pain quite well. I am very clear headed. No sign of serotonin syndrome... but I'm WIDE AWAKE 8 hrs after taking 50mg. Not a nod in sight. I feel like a drank a pot of coffee each hour. Hmmmm... confused I dunno. I guess I'll try the morphine next week. I was really hoping for a med that isn't so regulated, because it's irritating to have to go to the doctor every 6 weeks when there is NOTHING wrong with me other than arthritis.

I swam 1,000 yds in 30ish minutes today.

Go TEAM! clap
