Only thing I don't like is it makes me so dizzy I vomit. I was doing fine with Vicodin, but I know it's more addictive then the Ultram is. Since I started taking the Ultram I've also gotten really bad headaches about an hour after I take it, and it lasts 2 hours (the headache.) Also one of my legs on my shin (sp) has gone numb.. just like right on the top. I don't know if it's from the Vioxx or the Ultram... I just know the rest of the stuff is the Ultram because it happens everytime I take it.
