tho doc did leave me on Ultram I dont consider it up there with the oxy I had been on for years. Actually all I feel not so bad. Before I did the stint in rehab (almost a month after I popped my last MS Contin) Ultram wouldnt have touched my pain but now that everything else is out of my system the ultram is cutting it rather nicely. Now I don't pressume to know much about this disease or about the brain tumor that resides in my head nor do I want to come off like a condescending pompous ass but I honestly didnt believe this would work and am quite shocked that it did. Yes its scary coming off the meds we have come to rely on but for those that sometimes think they would like to try it I say go for it.



Love and Peace
