<I think she added the tylenol up to be like 4,250mg a day

if I took everything for a couple days out of the month.?

They swtiched my from Ultram to Ultracet or Tramadol oh about a year or more

ago. I take much more than you do though. It did help when they switched me. I

also take percoset, because the Ultracet or Tramadol just keeps me from

screaming. I think you will like the switch. Just remember that there is

tylenol in the Tramadol so you are now taking quite a bit of it. Gwen

Hello ,

I think you should check with your doctor on the amount of

acetaminophen you take on a daily basis.

I've read recently, in a medpage today article, that you shouldn't

injest any more than 4000 mg's of acetaminophen a day. Any more

could damage your liver.

I know this because I was warned not to over do it myself. I have

been diagnosed with a fatty liver.

I am now on a strict diet and I try to walk or ride my recumbent

bike for at least 5 miles per day. Some days, I can walk more.

It all depends on my pain levels.

As of September 28, I've lost 75 pounds since January 2, 2006.

Wow. That's great. I was thinking of getting an excerise bike for in

front of the TV. I will have to check out the play it again sports

store.

When you ride your recumbent bike, can cars spot you easily? Are you

lower than a regular Bike.?

Hi ; )

Tramadol is the generic name for Ultram. Both are

names for the same drug - there is no difference.
