Arthritis: You have had a lot for 36. You seem to have a systemic arthritis that is NOT simple OA. See a rheumatologist & consider some other collagen diseases. Stop the useless Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine hcl). It only relaxes muscles in cats & is a human sedative. Tramadol is a sedative that can extend analgesic effects just a bit. If you have already seen a specialist, look to another. Good luck!
