Hi again everyone, I haven't been on this site for ages, as I've had a lot going on in my life health wise lately, but I'm feeling better now.

Just out of interest, is anyone else on Pregablin for their RLS? If so, how are you finding them? Do you suffer any side effects?

Hi,I was on a high dose of Pregablin and it didn't help my legs at al

BUT I have heard of many having good results with it.I take 75mh at night as an add on medication but by itself ,no didn't do a thing . Only side effect I had was weight gain.

Yeah, same here. How much weight did you gain? Do you know of any medication that doesn't make you gain weight? I'm fed up now.
