@jimhd I love coffee 😭, and since you admitted your compulsive shoe habit, I will confess that I had a compulsive, very expensive Teavana habit until Starbucks ruined Teavana. I don't know if you have looked Tramadol up, and of course, with all the new special interest groups and political pressure they will make it sound worse, but I find it helps for some pain and not for others. It is not an opioid but is considered as the evil precursor to opioids and therefore addiction to other drugs. I have always been able to use it sparingly and never had any problem with addiction issues. It does not cause euphoria for me given all my other health issues. It is, however, still a controlled substance like the Clonazepam, and often they will limit the amount you are able to get at first until one of the gods of your insurance company or the government decides you are not an addiction risk. I will get off my soapbox now, but I have plenty more to say about this subject. Take care! Still trying to find out about those supposedly awesome shoes. 🤗

Thankfully my doctors talk with my Medicare Supplement insurance company to raise my doses--otherwise, my pain management doctor says I would have to add marijuana or change to an opioid pain med.
