Tramadol withdrawal and RLS

I'm wondering if there's a link between Tramadol withdrawal and RLS or if suddenly decreasing my intake of Tramadol could be linked to this new problem I've acquired. It could be just a mere coincidence, but it's on my mind.

I've been taking Tramadol for 3 1/2  years now. I know it's not a strong pain pill and honestly I don't think I'm addicted. I do however have to take 2 to even help with the pain and I have to take them more often but I believe that's because I've been on them for so long. I was prescribed them for Endometriosis ( which we will discuss later, it's not proven I have it they just "think" I do without doing an invasive procedure to find out) when we lived in Virginia and been on then since. At first one pill worked for the pain, they made me feel tired and kind of weird. Over the years I've had to increase the dose and sometimes even take ibuprofen with it. Before my doctor went Mia I had a prescription for 10 Lortab a month also just to use for breakthrough pain in case the Tramadol didn't work. The Tramadol usually works good enough to take the edge off so the pain isn't unbearable. I did try Cymbalta instead but then realized that I liked Tramadol better if for nothing more then it highly decreased my appetite so I switched back since the Cymbalta did not seem to help at all. If Tramadol has any addiction affect on me I'd have to say if I had an unlimited supply of them I probably would take them on a daily basis to decrease my appetite. I don't have an unlimited supply however therefore I only take them when I feel like I need them.  So anyway, I used to take them a lot more often . I used to take a lot more medications more often. I've been trying to not take so many things. If for no other reason then I don't know how much longer I'll have medical insurance. My husbands been having issues with his knee. Hopefully he will be able to finish out the last two years of his contract but regardless I think re-listing is out. Anyway I have been trying to figure out what I absolutely need and what I don't and stick to what I believe I do. These RLS I've been having only started a couple of months ago and I've read online that people have really bad RLS when having withdrawal from pills. I really didn't think Tramadol would be included in this but I've search and apparently some people become addicted to tramadol. The only thing I guess that worries me or that really makes me want to compare the two is that the last two nights when I couldn't sleep b/c of the RLS  I took tramadol for the pain and then when it finally kicked in it helped and all was okay! Guess that's about all for now. I have a lot of stuff to get done. I just wanted to make a note of all of this while it was on my mind. If anyone has ever had any adverse experiences after decreasing their Tramadol intake, or know someone who has, I would love to hear from you.
