Information of Heroin Use/addiction Please?

Question by Kevin: Information of heroin use/addiction please?
Hi all now this might seem like a strange story/question but 5 years ago I was hospitalised as a 15 year old and was in extraordinary pain. Now this is no exaggeration but for about 10 days I was on constantly being given morphine injections by the Special Pain Team at the hospital. It was something like 7 shots a day. I was high as a kite all day to stop me screaming in pain with night time breaks of maybe 8 hours without morphines effects. They took me off for half a day but I kicked up such a stick they put me back on (later they told me I was having a serious withdrawal attack) Then when I went home I was given 2 packets of like 20 pure morphine tablets each and a packet of codeine with maybe 30 tablets. These lasted a week.

What Are the Side Effects of ULTRAM ER?

Question by dot: what are the side effects of ULTRAM ER?
Yes, it’s a narcotic and can dangerous if used incorrectly and/or abused, but what are the feeling you know of when taking it, if any.

The packaging says to take it every day at the same time/same hour, but can I just take it as needed?

Is it suppose to be taken with food?

Yes, I’ve searched online, but hoping for input from those who’ve actually taken it or have experience with ULTRAM ER.

Thank you!

Sorry. Edit. Of course take it as needed if you can. This might be the Golden Goose to the positive side of Ultram.

If you never took an opiate in your life, it might be good. A genuine doctor on here referred to as a poor drug. I am not that kind.
