Reply To: Muscle spasms/tension decades after GBS

Fairly odd mother,

I have slowly cut back on my drug use for GBS pain.  What is definitely working for my leg pain now – Tramadol HCI ER 24HR 100 MG – this is a 24 hour time release.  I take two.

The medication is great.  However, it has been a real pain in the ass to deal with at the pharmacy since I am retired military, local military hospital does not carry it, and Tricare for some reason won’t pay ……. but Tricare are being total jerks and keeping it to precisely 30 day.  They day I run out – is the day I can get it refilled. And if that falls on a weekend I have hell to pay even with a civilian pharmacy.
