I have been on tapentadol for six weeks and the thing nobody warned me about is the sweating.
I am not worse, exactly. I am less able to pretend, which may be progress.
Cold and heat sensitivity turned out to be part of it and is barely mentioned anywhere.
Withdrawal symptoms are not the same as side effects, and conflating them wasted a year of my life.
Tolerance at a stable dose is the usual explanation well before anything more interesting is.
What would you ask the prescriber if you had fifteen minutes?

Changing prescriber does not reset anything, and people discover that the hard way.

How do you tell the difference between the drug working and just a good week?

Same here.

Same here.
How long have you been on tapentadol?
