Hi guys can you tell me what medication you are on - rh doc has put me on pregabalin 25mg x 3 times a day he has told me to come off co codomol due to headaches. What would you suggest for the pain as he advised paracetamol which does not help at all. Am in a lot of pain unable to sleep, extremely anxious and just don’t know what to do. Thanks
