help pain xanax will neck

Neck pain Type 1 Type 2 Prevention. Mental Health Anxiety Depression. I have had neck pain for about two years now. Sometimes accompanied by a headache in my right temple, sometimes not. The pain feels like muscle pain, in that it feels better for just a few minutes! I've been to a chiropractor and that helps for a bit less will xanax help a day and then the pain comes back.

I can't pain neck xanax will help my head to the right or tilt it to the right too much without it hurting kind of like a crick in the neck after you sleep wrong, except ALL the time. So I've been taking Tramadol for about a year to a year in a half. I started off taking about 4 pills a day mg and am now taking 8 pills a day mg which is the max he told me to take. The tramadol was working perfectly for about a year now and then all of a sudden within the past week or so, they don't work anymore.

When I take them, I get NO relief. I'm too pain neck to take any more, because I'm also on Lexapro and there is a risk of seritonin syndrome. Has anyone ever heard of taking Xanax for pain relief? I just need something to releive the pain and stiffness without making me sleepy during the day. Also, has anyone ever experienced the same type of pain, always on the same side in the same spot?

I want to neck pain out first that it is never a good idea to take anyone else's prescription medication. Especially when you take several as there can be interactions that are very dangerous. I do know that Xanax is used for pain but you need to ask your Doctor if it is safe for you with the other medications. It sounds like you have built up a tolerence to the Tramodol and you need a different medication for the pain.

Have you had any test xanax cause high blood pressure such as xrays or an MRI to diagnose the problem? My Sister has the symptoms you describe and she has some nerve damage in her neck. Have you had a nerve conduction study done? What are you being treated for? I do hope you get some neck pain soon as it sounds like your in real pain.

Hi jen, First, I want to welcome you to the Pain Management Forum and let you know that we are glad you found this Forum. I was born and raised in Tulsa. You need to be checked out by your Doctor as Sandee suggested and get some X-rays, MRI's done and get a diagnosis for this. I'm pretty sure that you have become intolerant to the Tramadol. After you've been on a medication for such a long period of time we will ALL become intolerant of non addictive alternative to klonopin medications and have to change them periodically.

Are you having any problems with your arms or your hands, such as tingling in your finger tips OR pain in your arms of any type? Sometimes that can be conducive to nerve damage in your neck as that is what's happening to me because of bulging discs in my neck. Have you EVER had a migraine study done?

Just trying to come up with neck will pain help xanax suggestions that you haven't tried as yet. I'll be looking for your updates Tramadol is a good general pain med. But the underlying cause of your neck pain needs to be identified. It could be radiculopathy, myofascial pain syndrome, occipital nerve issues, etc. Proper diagnosis will involve some imaging studies, and possibly other tests.

Hope you'll get your primary care physician to refer to you a specialist who can work out what's going on and how many tramadol equals 1 oxycodone 5mg best to address it. Thank you all for your responses. I will xanax help going to make another neck pain to see if there are any neck pain tests will xanax help can be done that aren't as expensive and talk to him about help will xanax meds.

The sad thing is that I've tried pretty much every type of muscle relaxer there is and my Neck pain seems unwilling to prescribe any pain meds stronger than Tramadol because he's worried about addiction, which I understand, but doesn't really help me any! Now I know why there are support groups for this, it's neck pain frustrating!

Thanks everyone for trying to help. I had neck problems for years and this drug works great for nerve pain and it also used for mild pain. It "pain neck will help xanax" kinda makes you feel good and does not neck pain you out Good luck. Xanex can be a good muscle relaxer but it also has all sorts of risks involved addiction, rebound headaches I preferred lorazepam though, which is in the same family they're both benzos, all of which are primarily anxiety medications but are sometimes off-labeled as muscle relaxers Have you tried lorazepam?

Truthfully, your doctor is misleading you. Tramadol is addictive as well, and if you've taken it as long and does tramadol affect hydrocodone frequently as you say, chances are you are physically dependent upon it now. YOu may want to have a frank discussion with him you can even get proof from a pharmacist by talking to them about the addiction risks of tramadol and say that if you're already on an addictive substance and are running that risk in order to get pain relief, at the least you should receive adequate pain relief.

I personally think it's ridiculous when doctors prescribe Ultram for long-term pain management as an alternative to a mild narcotic Tramadol IS physically addictive, so if his concern is to not have you on an addictive medication, that ship has already sailed. There are many Doctor's that assume Tramadol is not addictive. They could take a look at the SA community here and they would think differently. There are a great many that become addicted to it. When you take any drug neck pain or not your body becomes accustomed to it and you will get withdrawal symptoms when stopping it.

If the Tramadol isn't working any longer then it is time to discuss other options. If there are no other options they are willing to offer it may be time to get a second opinion. I am sorry if you have mentioned it but are you neck pain a PMP? I suggest you do if your not already. Also check around your area for MRi cost. Here in Florida you can get an MRI for as low as dollars.

Dogmanthing, I have tried Gabapentin. It did absolutely nothing for me. This may neck pain weird, but very few pain meds have any effect on me. Sandee, I am seeing a Primary Care Physician, he's my family doctor. I know I probably need a 2nd opinion. I am a stay at home mom, so money is a little tight so I try to go to "neck pain" Dr as infrequently as possible. Even copays get expensive when you have frequent visits! I probably should see someone else though. What kind of doctor should I go see though?

Another Primary Care Dr or some type of specialist? If so, what kind? I agree with you Ashelen pretty name by the way! He said that he's OK with me being on Tramadol because as far as pain killers go its relatively "benign" compared to others. I have tried Lortab, but it doesn't really do anything for me. That's why I tried my husband's Xanax that one time. I know that it's not a good idea to try other peoples prescriptions, but sometimes I just get so tired of this pain that I'd do ANYTHING to get rid of it, even when I know it's not necessarily the best idea.

I have gone to a chiropractor who said that klonopin 610 mg used for X-rays "neck pain" I have lost the curve in can you mix oxycodone with xanax neck due to an old whiplash injury years ago. The accident was a few years before the pain started, but the chiro said whiplash can come back to bite you, but when I researched that online, I found that there is some question among Medical Doctors as to whether that's actually even a legitimate thing.

And chiro adjustments didn't really help longer than a few hours either. Sometimes I feel like it's never going to get better and Neck pain just have adverse reactions to lorazepam live with it forever, like I have for the past couple of years. Sorry to be a Negative Nellie. If anyone could give me suggestions as to what kind of Dr I should get a 2nd opinion from, that would be great.

I don't know what a PMP is? PMP is Pain management physician: Thanks for clearning that up. I am going to try to find a PM Doctor on my insurance and get a 2nd opinion. In the meantime, I think I'm going to try some type of Zanax or Adavan. I'm willing to try anything at this point! Thanks everyone for their responses. Hi Jen, I notice this post is from I am suffering from about the same thing; severe neck pain that also goes up to half of my skull One of my girlfriends is a walking miracle.

She told me that a doctor named Dr. Thomp in Rancho Santa Margarita Ca saved her life literaly. Tramadol hcl tablets sun pharmaceuticals am getting ready to finally have a consul with him for my herniated discs.
