Absolutely taking for pain prescribed at hospital pain mgt. clonic as last dutch effort. We have already discussed potential addiction and need to ween off with supervision. I think it was a matter of quality of life to begin taking pregabalin and I am happy to say that hat my quality of life has improved 100 per cent. I think everyone must make those decisions for themselves with a well qualified doctor prescribing and monitoring that means regular scheduled visits. It is a one size fits all situation.
