I have been taking pregabalin for nearly 2 years now and still find it difficult to tolerate. I still feel "spaced out" and thoughts often feel jumbled up. Stringing a sentence together can be difficult at times and I often feel confused., I have also gained 12lbs since I started taking it. I am still eating the same amount of food and taking regular exercise but struggling to loose those extra pounds. I also come out in hives all over my body and have become sensitive to heat , eg hot baths or showers. I have also found that I have had to keep increasing the dose as my body gets use to the level am taking. Refuse to take more that 300 mgs a day as I was to keep as active as possible.
