I have been taking Pregabalin since May 2014 following excision of a benign spinal tumour. I had taken it many years ago but didn't like the spaced out feeling it gave me. Unfortunately I have been left with very bad neuropathic pain Iand felt I had no choice but to re visit that medication. I started on 75 mg twice daily and now take 100 mg in ten morning and 200mg at night. I have tried to increase the morning dose to 150 but cannot tolerate the dizziness and spaced out feeling I get when it appears to peak about 4 hours after taking it. The other side effects I think I am presenting with are blurred vision and sensitivity to light, lack of concentration, forgetfulness,bloatedness, constipation, difficulty typing and writing things down and hypersensitivity.
