I take tramadol on occasion, because I'm on a blood thinner, and they
don't want me taking any aspirin or aspirin like substitutes. I only use it every two months or so.

I've heard a lot of contradictory advice from lay people in AA. Some are into no prescription drugs at all. I don't take that seriously. I would listen to my doctor. He knows my history, and he's cautious about prescribing anything. He knows me, and I trust he wouldn't do anything to jeopardize my sobriety or my health. I think this probably would hold true for you to. If you have adverse effects from anything, let him know.
