peripheral neuropathy
"Hi all
Have been on 300 mg pregabalin for Neuropathy and Brain Zaps, for 12 months , not to bad at first on a very low dose of 50 mg but still having brain Zaps went up to 300 mg a Day in in stages then 6 months ago started getting bad Tinnitus then Loud Drumming in the middle of my Head constant ,in short sent to Ear Specialist and given pain killers
 told I have lost low tones in left ear  problem with Pregabalin  permanent  loss.
As the side affects were now getting worse than any benefits I decided that I should stop this Drug which I did over 3 months, now off but no sleep ,sweats , headaches, pain worse than before.
My advise is stay off look for alternative coming off is worse than starting .
2 stars given for start of treatment,"
