know the feeling only too well. I worked digging the roads in narrow holes everyday played a part with my pain but then I suffered near life ending injuries to my back as well and the pain goes through the roof and I gave up going to the doctor about it I really do hope you get proper treatment and support.
Hello Are you still on the same dose. It shouldn't make any difference when it's a different brand of Pregabalin,.
I hope that you get the help you need to help with your pain.
Unfortunately, as I have been told numerous times, unfortunately there is never a tablet or combination of tablets that can totally help you be out of pain.
It is very, very difficult to cope with constant pain (I know that only too well unfortunately).
Sometimes life isn't fair 😕
the doctor keeps putting up the dose everytime phone for more pills
I understand your frustration 🫤 it's not always ideal just to have your meds increased until you have seen the specialist to find out what exactly is causing the pain/making your pain worse.I really do understand. It's so frustrating not to be actually listened to by the doctors.
I hope that you have an appointment with the consultant soon.
DENZO1 so do l hope to get appointment and hope you some help to
Unfortunately, I have come to the end of the road with my consultants. I have too many medical issues for any of them to be resolved. But, never give up the fight ✨️
Hi, sorry to about your pain. I have just started on pregabalin but not for pain but for tremors. Apparently I will be going from 25mg and cycle up to 600mg so far (after 2 weeks) there has been no change to either tremors or PLMD or pain. I suffer with pain in abdominal, chest and back. Used to be on pain patches which use to make the pain bearable but it was found it stopped my breathing and was becoming dangerous, so now on nefopam , paracetamol. Gp is reluctant to do any more until I see pain clinic (they were shocked when I told them it’s 17 week wait) so it’s just a case of grin a bear it. I hope you get the help you need. Kevin
I have 2 prolapsed discs and degenerated vertebrae, amongst other pills, I take pregablin in day and amitriptyline at night to help sleep, as without I could not sleep
I could t take thos medication. It made me feel suicidal ..dreadful experience
momander that is not good that a horrible feel sorry for you
The Amitriptylene does not suit me either. It was horrendous! Pregabalin is definitely a lifesaver for me (as much as it can be), plus all the other medications! It seems to be trial and error. I hope that you have found something else that is suitable for your pain.
I hope you are prescribed some Amytriptyline asap!
Konagirl60 l have had amptriptyline had been on them for 10 years and had try something else
Konagirl60 Just amptriptyline and now rehashing is Nortriptyline good
