Super imposed symptoms and conditions

Originally prescribed Ultracet(actually generic Tramado/apap) for arthritis pain. As instructed, I took two pills at night and one in the morning. By mid-morning I was ill--vomiting, dizziness, extreme fatigue, some itchiness. The arthritis pain was diminished though.
It also gave me weird dreams --black and white television stories super-imposed on colorful dreams. Those were actually kind of interesting, not scary.
I don't think this is the right pain medicine for me.
