Sorry gone all day just getting around to babble. See to me if the pain wasn't noticed by you then the tramadol was working hence no pain. Seems that pain management today is very against any meds for pain. Now it's lidocaine patches and the NSAID"s patches you mentioned. From the computer fingers to you from me my Mother was sick from the day I was two blamed me, I had to take care of her, Father was working, drinking beer, who knows, said the carrying me up two flights of stairs startted her illness and I believed it til had my own first child and Bingo moment when carrying her up stairs a light turned on in my brain and I thought " It wasn't me no way carrying my Daughter up stairs can make me sick". I thought back to the tantrums she threw, the foaming at mouth if I did something to upset her and realized it was the new realease of cortisone and all the injections she was getting causing the outbusts. No one knew then how strong and dangerous it can be if not used properly so I forgave her as psychosis can be a too high dose of cortisone. Also she'd get migraines be in bed for three days I'd have to hold her head over a toilet as she vomited and said she would die as she knew she'd bust a vessel in her brain with the vomiting. Sheer nonsense. I raised my kids with nothing but stressing the positive things they did to build good self esteem. Didn't dwell on negatives. So today they are all so independant never hear from them or rarely but all three are very successful in life. So I know I gave them the freedom to spread their wings and fly. So kids do realize like I did at some special moment that they didn't cause they parents problems. Yes emotionally was some would say abused. But I forgive and that is the healing to me. Just my own story and take on kids. I'd see if your pdoc will prescribe the tramadol if he thinks it's helping. Why take a med for depression if it's really pain causing depression. Viscious cycle and take the xanax for now. No heros weren't meant to suffer in pain. Love Phillipa
