Kathy971 gabapentin and tramadol they are both inhibitors. That mean, they both slows down your breathing and heart rate. If you take them both together the end results may not be so good..

So interesting, Trev! I didn’t know about this…although, it might explain why gabapenten is often prescribed as it’s an anti seizure medication. It’s great for neurogenic pain. I was on 300 mgm per day as I couldn’t tolerate any higher dose . An odd thing, Kaiser pharmacy told my doc that I shouldn’t take it and tramodol, so I had to dc it. Was never sure why. I think it’s because I turned 80 last year. One rule does NOT fit everyone. Medicine should be individualized! Don’t let me get on my soapbox about that! That’s my front yard, a lovely place to be…there is a pond with a waterfall in the middle. Sending air hugs.

I have spasms front back. I mean they're almost like seizures but I don't know. Sometimes they start in my feet go in my legs. Sometimes they're in my back. Sometimes they're my front. Sometimes they go up into my face up into my head. It's weird how they are but when they when they hit I've always been one that just says ouch. You know I know they're intense. I know there but like with my ankle it got broken and I just told them to set it. I was so used to the pain that all I say is ouch even though it's a 9 or 10 but there's nothing you can do. You just bear the pain. But yeah spasms do look like seizures and the more stress you're under the worse they get.
