Hi I take pregablin with me I have lurnt to tolerate the dizziness becauce it hasn't gone away. Also I do still have periods of feeling very tired, but I do have a good nights sleep. It will take a while to get used to it and it has really helped with my anxiaty. Give it time x

Hi Batwoman

I'm on it too and must say it knocked me out for a while. What dose are you on and how long have you been on it? I think it took a few weeks to settle in but to be honest I was out of it so can't really remember. I know I slept a lot and felt really dizzy. After about 6/7 months I started halving the dose as I was just a bit fed up of being tired all the time and ready for bed by 7pm most nights! That said - I had a freind on a higher dose who felt good on it so I guess it just depends on your body! Give it a whil and talk to GP if still worried I say! :) x

see my response to smurfym might be great for you my husband never felt tired on it good luck I am 69 now but I had 4 kids and know how bad it can be. Dont try to be a perfect mum just do your best kids are tougher than you think and a dirty face and a chip butty sometimes does them no harm just as long as they know you love them.
