My Tramadol Dose

I am on my second day of 10 per day of Tramadol.  I woke up late this morning (about 8:30 AM)  I usually take my first dose of 4 at 6AM.  And my second dose at 8AM.  So when I woke up at 8:30AM, I just took 7,  my 1st and 2nd dose at the same time.  I think that was a mistake, after about 45 minutes to an hour later I threw up.  So I probably threw up some of my 1st and 2nd dose.  I took my 3rd dose of 3 about half an hour ago.  Other than that I guess I'm doing ok.  Should I do anything about throwing up some of my 1st and 2nd dose?  What would you guys do?

I guess I take the doses closer together trying to make myself feel the effects of the Tramadol more.  I go without, the rest of the day.  I have always taken my Tramadols all before 10AM, for the most part.  Probably why I get brain zaps by morning the next day.  Hey, I might be at 8 this Saturday!  I have not made up my mind 100%.  I dropped from 11 to 9 this weekend that just passed.  I might start going down 1/2 pill at a time soon too.  But I'm still on track and still going down!  Just gotta stay motivated!

Consider yourself lucky I once got frauded for the ehtire balance of my cc $1,000 by some hacker for an online casino!!!  But in the end they wound up refunded me twice as much:) Why do u take your two doses so much and so close together??  What do u do the rest of the day??  I am still at 8 , I've had afew slip up so I'll stay for a bit.

that's what I'm trying to do is warn fellow medication users.  i'm pretty sure it was someone getting into my e-mail and reading a re-order form.  (and how better to find out who to go after than this site?)  simple as that really.  i am going to call them to order from now on.  i won't use my new card number on-line for medication again, that's for sure.  that always did make me nervous.  getting that e-mail with everything already filled out, my cc number, the exp date, and the 3 digit code all right there.  made me nervous.  i have thought about it a lot and i'm pretty sure that is the only place someone could have got to my information.  i don't use and have not used my card anywhere else where it could be a risk.  oh, i don't really get spam hardly at all ever.  (i do feel like i was preyed upon here at this site though.)  well what goes around comes around.  and the bank's claims department i'm sure will find out who did it.  i'm sure they will find the computer it was used from at the very least.  all the charges where for adult porn sites.  so whoever is using it is stupid.

sorry that happened to you ...that is horrible! Esp w/a debit card...that's "real" money.
Another good reason to get off this crud. Do you get TONS of spam from drug selling sites? I am going to have to get rid of my yahoo acct when this is done...I get a "reorder notice" every frigging 3 days, plus general spam from other drug spammers.
Good luck getting it resolve quickly.

Thanks for the support!  We can all use all of that we can get.  Yea my bank (it was actually my debit card) is going to take care of it all for me, no problem.  I just hope other people don't have the same problem.  For anyone who might have a pre-order form e-mailed to them with thier information already on it, could be a risk.  I think that's where they got me.  But you never know.  I could have been got some place else.  I don't blame MedHelp at all though of course.  It's not thier fault hackers may or may not hack thier members.  Someone probably got access to my e mail somehow.  But I am in a good mood about my 9 pills per day.  And in 6 days, Saturday, if everything goes as planned I'll drop to 8!  Six(6) days away from 8 per day!  WooooHoooo!!!!

Now...thats crazy, and awful with someone getting your cc info, and using it online..

But the cc company should take care of it for you...and you already cancelled the card..so you they shoulc comp you the $150..

Anyway, just wanted to say how happpy I am for you, and done4godd, in tapering down from a drug that has withdrawls from hell !!

If it even compares, or is worse..... than hydro's, I must say you are both doing a GREAT JOB, and my hat is off to you!!!... Dont let anything stop you from your taper plan....Just stick to it, as you planned, and you will get their.....

PanS....You should already be dancing, if your a little ahead of schedual, and down to 9 trams a day..........Your doing great, and I can not wait until your posting zero !!

A lot of things seem to come our way, when we can be in the worst part of our withdrawls...but we have to keep going, no matter what...to obtain our complete freedom !!

Everyday that goes by....is another day forward in your progress!

Stay strong !!

God Bless,
Love,
Todd

The only place anyone could have got my information from is probably a pre-order form that is e-mailed to me by SpeedyRx.com  when I refill my medication.  I thought maybe someone (a hacker) saw me here at this site and saw what I take (Tramadol), knowing maybe I get that pre-order form...etc.  You know.  And my name here is PanSinoeis.  I use the same name ***@**** for my E-Mail.  I just have a feeling, within the same week I join this site, I start getting charges.  I could be wrong.  It's just a feeling.  I canceled my card anyways, so it really don't matter anymore now.  But I'm out about $150 right now, I have claims going now and everything.  Just a big headache I really did not need right now, you know trying to quit Tramadol and everything.  I'm glad you are here, you give me the most support.  Thanks Done4Good.  For being there.

I have been having fraud charges on my credit card.  I think someone found me here at this site.  And hacked me some how and got my credit card info probably from a pre-order form for Tramadol from ordering online.  Or something like that.  I have like 6 fraud charges - I just canceled my credit card.

Sounds good if you can jump to 9 w/out it being too bad.
I haven't been on tram that long this time. The most I have been on is over a year. The WD were worse the 2nd time though, depression wise so I am really wanting to prepare for that and go slow this time.
This time, I really haven't even been on it consistently because of my hydro problem that got me back on this in the first place.
Still, I know if I went ct right now it would be really bad.

I'm thinking about just taking 9 tomorrow and staying there until Saturday.  Since I shorted myself by getting sick.

I really don't know how bad the withdrawals will be, but I plan on doing the half a pill and quarter pill thing when I get lower.  I really hope they are not that bad (withdrawals).  But I really don't know.  I never stopped Tramadol after such an extended period of use.  I have stopped after months of use before, but not years.  But I went cold turkey off 4-6 per day.  This is my first time trying to do the taper thing.  I have no choice though, I have to taper.  Did too much for too long.  3-4 years or so.  Maybe 3, give or take some months.  Too much, too long.  I feel off right now, (not normal) I'm not real worried about it though.  I'm pretty sure I took quite a bit less than 10 today.  I'll just wait and see how I feel.  I'll post again later.

Hey sorry you got sick. I would maybe wait it out and see how you feel. You can get back to your regular dosing tomorrow so it doesn't seem like wd would really set in does it?
I managed to stay at 5 yesterday and am going for 4 today.

btw...read that you are taking 2 weeks vacation at the end of this. If we taper to 1/2 a pill then 1/4 a pill and go to every other day, our final WD's shouldn't be too bad should they?
I remember when I did this before and I got ahead of myself and jumped off after 1 and spent about 3-4 days in typical wd mode. The depression and anxiety was the part that lasted longer.
