The time of trying to find a way home from the hospital is upon me, and unfortunately it involves a lot of experimentation, it would seem. They want to get me off the supplemental IV Dilaudid ASAP, and are trying Tramadol as the first substitute. I took it over an hour ago and just rambled around the room, and I'm now in level 9 pain. Experiment Fail, bring back the Dilaudid, I say. I'm now arguing my case for this with the nurses. Urgh.
@leejackson i am so sorry you are in pain. Tramadol usually works.. have you asked them about the super ibuprofen? i wish i could remember what its called but it reduces inflammation and it works better than dilatid, for me..
