Does anyone have experience with pregabalin?

I've been prescribed 2x 25mg a day as my first dose and told to check back in with the Dr in a couple of weeks.

I'm worried that it'll effect my studies at uni and performance at work. I've also read about weight gain.

Hi
I’ve been taking 175mg x a day for nerve pain for nearly 2 years. It took a while settle down as I felt quite dizzy but the dose you’re on is very low so you shouldn’t feel like that. I haven’t noticed any weight gain in that time and it’s been a huge help.
I hope that gives you a little reassurance.
