'everything louder than everything else'
im on trt 200mg pw test, i have just been prescibed tramadol (strongest painkiller bar morphine) to control pain from a trapped nerve, i only use 50mg each night as this is when i have the nerve pain mostly. anyone know if the tramadol will affect my test? i do know one of the sides is muscle rigidy from the tramadol and have been cramping more easily

Tramadol is not a strong narcotic. Its ultram. No where near the same as morphine????
No it shouldnt affect your test.
'everything louder than everything else'
its prescribed for amputees etc and i had it before after a serious road accident, i was weened on to it from morphine and it cancelled out the pain just the same. believe me, one of these has your head in the clouds lolOriginally Posted by tboney

I have tramadol and it doesn't seem all that bad ass to me.

Bro.. I know what it is. It is one of the milder narcotics. Ofcourse it will help with pain... particularly pain associated with nerve damage, but it is not in the same class as morphine, hydrocodone, oxycodone, etc, etc. It is in a class known as opiate agonists.

i was always under the assumption it was heavy duty. it does put my lights out though, it sedates me heavily, maybe just me then?

If it works thats all that matters. Anyway it shouldnt mess with your test.

Chronic use of opiates shuts down the Pituitary, that's what led me to be on TRT. I was prescribed morphine and was on it for 5 years along with percocets. My GP put me on the morp's and perc's. I went to an Addiction specialist to get off and she saw that I was on TRT and said it was directly caused by the opiate use. I'm not sure how realted morphine is to Ultram in its mechanism of action on the body. Never researched that drug. Now if you looking for the strongest opiate I would talk about Fentanyl, that stuff is serious. It's so strong it's measured in micrograms. I think you knock out an elephant with the dosage on the head of a pin.

Deadly!! I used it off and on for years when I couldnt get dope. Fortunately those days are over and I am recovering! 10 years in Nov.
To the OP, if you are occasionally using narcotic pain medicine at the prescribed therapeutic doses then your test levels should be fine.. However it is well documented that CHRONIC NARCOTIC abuse can result in hypogonadism.
Keep in mind that narcotic abuse can result in low levels of endogenous test production. I dont think it affects exogeneous test assimilation. I could be wrong though......

Those opiates suck you in, I've been off for only a few months now, but still have good and bad days. I'm lucky to live in a state where I have access to medical mj. I think that certain opiates are actually protein sparing ones.

Ultram in combination with acitominophen has been shown to be as effective as an analgesic as vicodin. but not as effective as Percocet. -Straight from the information pack with my bottle of ultram. Stuff seems pretty mild to me

wow
Tramadol is a synthetic codeine
in some medical books you will see it listed under NSAIDs but it is NOT!!
I've taken it for injuries and it really kills your desire to eat. You will lose weight on this stuff and it will not allow you to get deep sleep.
I dont recommend it
find a chiropractor or something else.

yeah, i was on it before after a bad RTA and after 4mths of inactivity and tramadol i'd lost 6st!! but at tht time i was on a big dose for a long time and barely ate, im stickin to the minimal this time around. i have a trapped nerve in my rear ribcage, its agony when it flares up, the tabs are just to see me through to my MRI scan where hopefully they can pinpoint and do something about it.

Tramadol is what they prescribed to my Dog when he had a bad leg! It is weak! It is not even a Narcotic! Or a controlled substance
Here the drugs in order of strength
Heroin
Fentanyl
Morphine
Oxycodone or (Roxicodone) (percoset, oxycontin etc. , etc.)
Hydrocodone (lortabs, Vicoden Etc.)
Norco (cant remember the proper name)
Then there are the non controlled substances
Tylenol 4
Tylenol 3
Ultram
Tramadol
It is about as weak as they come soory to bust your bubble man.
If you think they are as strong as morphine, take a 60 or 100mg morphine and then you tell me the difference! I bet $20 if tramadol knocks you out, than the morphine would propably "take you out" permanently!

It is technically a narcotic. It is an opiate agonist. Tramadol and ultram are the same.
I dont know what you are basing your info on??
Anything with codein is a controlled substance.... Tramadol is certainly a scheduled drug along with any of the tylenol/codein combinations.
There are many 100% synthetic narcotics just as strong as morphine, etc, etc, Demerol, Dilaudid, etc
