Hi Baba66,
Welcome. I hope you get some helpful information regarding your OCD. I look forward to reading your posts as well.
I've been on Tramadol (Ultram) on several occasions. I'm finishing a 30 day script for it now. How it would fit into your treatment for OCD, I'm not sure. I can tell you a little about the med though. It was originally used for mild to moderate pain. I like it because its not as addictive as other opiods, and causes a slight lift in mood.
I took it years ago for pain, and recently on and off for temporary uncomfortable med changes. I didn't find it as helpful for that. I think its best used on an as needed basis as efficacy wears off with daily use. I noticed your post above and it seems Suboxone is preferred by most according to one of the old posters. Not sure for OCD use.
