What Causes Light Headedness Along With Abdominal Pain On Weaning Off Tramadol?
I had been on Tramadol for 3 weeks and Tylenol 500mg for 7 and a half months. I have not taken an overdose of either medicine, but followed the labels. Since Sunday when I went off Tramadol, I have experienced lightheadedness, stomach pains, loss of apetite, and extreme tiredness. Today i decided to go off Tylenol because I no longer had pain in my legs. Do either of these medications have withdrawal symptoms when taken for the length of time that I have?
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of light headedness along with abdominal pain on weaning off Tramadol . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like COPD , bronchitis , acid reflux or angina . The symptoms can also occur due to withdrawal effect of tramadol so consult doctor about it . Broken rib can also cause such pain . You should avoid intake of large meals at a time and take small and frequent meals. You should avoid sleep immediately after having food. Take gelusil after each meal to avoid digestion problem. If there is shortness of breath , dizziness and fatigue then consult cardiologist without any delay .For now take steam and do warm saline gargles. Doctor may also refer you to orthopedic surgeon for muscle and bone problem as well as for nerve compression.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
