Meds not really working

[ryguy]

Curious to know what some of you others are taking for syringo pain? Ive been taking vicodin but it isnt seeming to work anymore. Im taking as many as 12 5/500 pills a day. Ive also recently ordered Omiglatex. Any success stories out there. Just found out that the syrinx is from c2-3 all the way down to t8-9. Should i even be working (construction). Also, has anyone experienced an enlarged spleen due to this? Normal is <12cm, mine is 14.3cm. Still waiting to talk to a neurologist, very anxious.

I am taking Ultram for the syringo pain. I was taking 12 a day but I've gotten myself down to 6 and mixing that with naproxen or excedrin seems to do a pretty good job. You should also look into getting a TENS unit. Its does the same thing that pain meds do but instead of chemically blocking the pain, it does it electrically. I hope this helps!!

Looks like tramadol (ultram) works pretty well for pain! Two for two so far! hahah. Hope this helps!
