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 😕

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.
