I was told that the symotoms I was experiencing years ago were caused by severe damage to my neck. My doctor originally had tried vicodin but that didn't work so well. Then he preoceeded to try Methadone. I took that for 3 months and took myself off because I noticed that I had to take it even if I wasn't experiencing pain. He then proceeded to put me on Tramadol. After a few months he put me on the highest dosage allowed. I lost my medical last year but he has been nice enough to still allow me refills until now. I am now withdrawaling from tramadol. I have withdrawaled from many drugs before bur I am now experiencing cold like symptoms. I have a runny nose, sneezing ect. I also have severe stomach issues as well as not being able to sleep. Last night alone I took 3 tylenol pm and I only slept a few hours. I have never withdrawaled from Tramadol before and reading all previous comments has scared me a little. I am also wondering why my doctor just stopped instead of tappering me. I know I haven't been in to see him for quite some time but I don't understand why he didn't call me prior. I am just wondering if my cold like symptoms are caused by the withdrawal?

Yes, it can cause cold like symptoms as a withdrawl. Amongst tons of serious other symptoms ... suicidal thoughts - strong thoughts when you wake up are part of this withdrawl as well. After tapering off from 8 pills to zero at day 8 I almost committed suicide. I ended up in emergency. Then in the hospital for a month to get off Tramadol aka Tramacet here. My GP put me back on it though! I could not believe he did that once I found out all the craziness I went through last year was due to Tramacet. Now back at the same withdrawl AGAIN! I wish I would of NEVER heard of this drug. Good for very short term or break through pain ... BUT DO not take it long term or large amounts for a month or more. The addiction is horrid!
