One of my docs put me on tramadol(Generic for Ultram.) to help w/pain management&it has some really nasty side effects-the worst of which is VERY VIVID NIGHTMARES. I have PTSD&some abuse issues from childhood&for the past 2 weeks I've been waking up around 5-6am huffing&puffing&taking several minutes to realize I'm no longer in the dream. These dreams include: sight, sound, physical sensation...I also usually find all of my covers ripped off of the bed after one of these doozies.
