I started feeling a bit ing sensation in my mental nerve area that radiated up my face.... Was dreadful burning feeling. The o.s said I have TMJ and sent me for MRI scan... Scan results said it's not ms. Was put on pregabalin 75mg to be taken at night by my GP. The oral surgeon asked GP to up the pregabalin. The GP has now upped it to 150mg (about 3 weeks ago now) to be taken at night. I'm feeling this burning has started on the left side of my face and at times down my neck,back and arms. I'm also noticing nerve pain.... Like a short sharp jolting sensation in the long buccle nerve area and random areas in my head... Even down my leg and neck at times. Not painful but manageable. I'm worried this may be getting worse??? Anyone having similar experiences. I'm feeling extremely scared.

How are you doing with the pain now, did it help to up the dose?
