Addiction advice

[shed2000]

Hi this is probally the most heard question but I really need to hear it with my circumstances

I had a car crash back in Jan this year that resulted in me having some serious back pain. After going through every pain killer from paracetamol up I was finally put on Tramadol in March. I am on 200mg of slow release tramadol 100mg in morning and 100 in the evening. I am also on 100 mg every 4 hours max 400 mg per day.

About a month ago I asked if there was any alternative to the tramadol as it had stopped being as effective so they took me off the slow release and put me on a 52.5 micrograms per hour Transtec patch (Buprenorphine)

I am trying to get off the Tramadol but I feel sick all the time and start to have hot and cold flushes and also feel light headed until i take a tramadol.

Can someone suggest what I should do as I feel really shit and so far have not been able to work since the accident I am still in pain but really need to stop this feeling all the time

Thanks in advance
