408496 tn?1269603350 I was just curious if anyone is or has tried to concieve while nursing. My DS is almost 6 months old and I have had AF twice since birth, but it is irregular (which is normal for me b/c AF was irregular prior to concieving baby number 1). I was just wondering if there are any tips besides the normal stuff for TTC - like any special considerations, is it harder/easier, etc. thanks!
Avatar f tn I am on my second day without tramadol and I am emotional, my stomach hurts, I cant sleep, I am really depressed, and I cant concentrate. I am trying to study for a pre-nursing exam and I cant, just typing this question is hard. I am taking withdrawl ease, tuna omega-3 oil, organically bound minerals, calcium lactate, renafood, 100mg zoloft, 40 mg adderall, and clonazepam. Do you know how long these feelings are going to last? I am really not doing well.
Avatar f tn I was given Tramadol and Buscopan but after reading the leaflets am weary of taking them as i am still breastfeeding my 14mth old baby (although only now once each evening). The doctors were aware i am nursing. i was given doses in hospital, the last dose was aprox 10am and am not due to feed baby till 6pm. should i feed her still tonight or give cows milk? Should i carry on with these or ask my gp to give me alternitives?

787406 tn?1339203183 My aussie started hiding today,which is what my boxer did the day he died,he is in so much pain that he groans all day,I tried Tramadol last night but had no effect on the pain. Can dogs take morphine when they have kidney failure?
Avatar f tn t sit without being in tears and had to bail on a couple of college classes. I have been taking Tramadol since December for the pain and just recently had to take vicodin. The tramadol doesn't always take away the pain so I'd take IB800's with it or tylenol. My stress has been through the roof too. I take Lorazepam as needed for panic attacks too.

Avatar n tn I've heard over and over again on here that tramadol is absolute hell to get off of. Like people are complaining more than someone who is trying to get off harder opiates. What's the big deal with this drug? Can someone answer me with specifics? Also, is there anyone out there that has just taken it for a short time and then stopped with no problems?
Avatar f tn I think it's 40, but surely if there are special considerations, i.e. your having had bc, or she has symptoms, etc, a mammogram can be done earlier. This baseline view is important to have and usually it's recommended around the age of 40? On the other hand, and since your daughter is breast feeding, it may be good to wait until she stops nursing for the purpose of getting a more accurate picture.

Avatar m tn I have been a 'functioning addict ' for most of my life, I was addicted to pain meds such as hydrocodone, and it almost ruined my life, I was a nurse for 20 years and went to jail, for forging prescriptions, in turn I lost my nursing license.

Avatar n tn Seizures (convulsions) have occurred in some people taking tramadol. You may be more likely to have a seizure while taking tramadol if you have a history of seizures or head injury, a metabolic disorder, or if you are taking certain medicines such as antidepressants, muscle relaxers, or medicine for nausea and vomiting. Take tramadol exactly as it was prescribed for you. Do not take it in larger doses or for longer than recommended by your doctor.
Avatar m tn I have currently been on Suboxone now for about 8 or 9 months and have gone down from about 2 2mg tablets a day to cutting one pill into 8ths, which is barley nothing. I do not have any withdrawl symptoms and feel just fine with that very small amount. Hopefully I will be able to go down from the 8th of a pill to nothing without any problems. I'm going from taking about 15 - 20 Lorcets , drinking HEAVILY, smoking weed, and the occasional upper and anti anxiety/depressant.

1285097 tn?1323780241 Feeling like crap, depressed, migraine-like headaches. I decided to stop.. but felt increasingly bad. Over the past 3 weeks i took tramadol only on one day a week.. but the day after I usually feel awful and very depressed and my mood has recently been incredibly down. It is effecting my mood like it never did before. It hasn't been like this over the first 9 months when I took it. I guess the chemistry in my brain is messed up...
