Sure Pain KIller

I am a person who gets migraine all the time. It has been said that migraine has triggers - meaning situations that can start the onset of a terrible migraine. I don't know in particular what my trigger is. All I know is that when I am upset and tired, I get headaches. Terrible ones! I can't see straight once I have an attack. I have a stash of pain reliever in my purse all the time, just in case. D2 has her own over-the-counter stash of pain relievers too for her back pain.

The other day, D1(the doctor) called and said she'd be quite late in coming home. She said she had to attend a medical product launch - whatever that means. She indeed came home late that night and I was surprised to when she came by my bedroom and gave me a big plastic bag of medicine samples. "Mom" she said, "here's your stash of pain reliever. You don't have to buy Tramadol for a while", D1 said cheerfully. The product launch was all about Tramadol and D1 got me samples, lots of them.

What is Tramadol? The drug is a non-narcotic pain-reliever. It works on the pain receptors of the brain blocking out pain effectively. The drug works on any type of pain but it is rather more geared on relieving pain caused by osteoarthritis and any other chronic pain. My best friend is also taking Tramadol as there are days that her back acts up. She fell on her back a year ago and that sort of jarred her 4th and 5th cervical vertebrae. She takes Tramadol too as it is recommended to alleviate moderate to severe pain of any cause. I take tramadol hcl 50mg tab and I can attest that my headache is gone in less than 30 minutes. Great huh?!

Tramadol is indeed quite useful. Good to see that is working for you. All the best for your migraine and health in general.

Have a good week :)
