Have a mix of nerve pain and a number of kidney stones.
A bad kidney stone will leave you suicidal after awhile. Tramadol was only thing that go me through those.
Nerve pain is harder as it’s long term. Never as bad as a kidney stone. But it is it something you can live with indefinitely. Tramadol works. But then you get long term addiction. I would stop for a month every few months just to detox some.
Eventually I discovered LDN. Which got pain under control. Plus side you can’t take opioids.
Was a nightmare finding a doctor that would prescribe it though.

- avgDev 4y agoI have some nerve pain. I tried LDN for maybe a month and it did nothing for me. What dosage are you and how long have you been taking it before seeing an improvement?
- treeman79 4y ago4.5 Started at 1.5. Fairly quick results. Only side effects being externally vivid dreams. After a week went to 3, week later to 4.5 I alternate between 3 and 4.5 mostly because dreams can be a bit much. But pain reduction is great. I have Sjogrens autoimmune as underlying condition. Other trick I found was I was taking a b complex. Removing the b-6 seemed to help.
