Hi, fantastic, I spent 3 years trying to get help from my GP before saying just refer me back to the rehab consultant, he prescribed me pregabalin, 150 mg a day, and it’s helped so much. First visit, wish I’d done it earlier.

Hiya, thats great news that it worked, ive tried them all, pregabalin, gabepentin, carbamazapine, Topirimate, sumatripitan and finally botox, but nothings worked till this last one, Venaflaxine for me. Its been brilliant for the headaches and for depression. Just having that bit of respite is great isnt it? Im only three weeks in on them but feeling good. Im glad the pregablin has helped you, ive met a few people where its been the wonder drug. Lets hope they continue to help us. Xx
