Question if anybody knows ( Gramps) I am on Tramadol 100 mg 3 x day already , back a couple of months ago I tired the Ultram ER . AND it knocked for a loop. I am seriously thinking about trying it again . wouldnt you think it would be better for around the clock pain being Extended Release . Gramps or anyone do yu know about it. thanks , I have been doing some reading too. Roz

well yes when I quite the Opana my ears quite screaming . Yes I know Ultram is Tramamdol so actually if I got on the Ultram I couldnt up it as its as far as it goes. Hummmmmmmm so then we are back at square one.

Pain visit was a disaster . They forgot to tell me that my dr. wasnt going to be there. And another Dr. thought he should take over , with his cocky attitude. nono I was fuming . well I gave them a little attitude of my own . so appt is now set for Nov. 26 . mad mad

Hey Gramps , are you in MN.? When you say Mayo ??? I am in Iowa

well the Dr . did write me a scrip for Kadien , not knowing my background or anything . Only 15 tabs but after coming home and reading up on it . And then finding out it was $40 copay for 15 or 30 . Out of pocket for 15 was $ 53. I said nope . I have already paid $40 for the Methadone , Opana  and Opana ER .

Something has got to be done about these medications , co pays and out of pocket expense . And also why cant  you return meds to drug if you have a reaction , capsules I can understand . I am writing my congressmen and senators. $120 for three meds that didnt work , and given back to Pain clinic. mad mad

Gramps there was another $40 copay I got the reg Opana which was a disaster too . So Methadone $20 , oPANA, $40 , OPANA ER $40 . so actually $100 Down the drain . Something has got to be done about that.
