Been to the docs today, knackered me back again.

Been prescribed Voltarol and Tramadol.

Had Voltarol before but am experiencing a sensation not unlike being a little bit pissed.

I assume this is the Tramadol, is this normal?

50mg tramadol capsules do make me ever so slightly spaced out.

Perhaps the question should have been "what mg of tram u supposed to be taking?"

Mate of mine was given a load of dimorphine in hospital when he did his back quite seriously.

Said it was like being a cat, curled up on a bed in a ray of sunshine, just absolutely blissful.

I'm just wondering how you'll be able to tell if you have those side-effects?
