Tramadol and its active metabolite, O-desmethyl tramadol, are in fact opioids, though their binding to the mu-opiate receptor is relatively week, and their anelgisic effect is only partially blocked by opiate antagonists. It is believed that tramadol is less tolerance producing than other opioids. Studies in animals show tolerance development. It has also been reported on this board that tramadol is less mood lifting than other opioids, but YMMV. If your doctor won't prescribe a regular opiod, then tramadol might be worth trying.
