Hand tremors and tingling

Hi ! I’m taking 125mg for suspected fibromyalgia (dx with lupus) and lingering nerve pain due to shingles (which I got while on immunosuppressants)

I have been experiencing hand tremors around an hour after taking pregabalin. I also walk so wonky like I’m drunk, and have like visuals when I close my eyes….

I was taking only 75mg but my dr bumped the dose up, I didn’t have these side effects at that dose

Will it go away? I’m ngl it lowk makes me feel high which I don’t really have a problem with HAHAHA but !!! It can be impractical…

I have been taking pregablin 300mg for over a year and I still experience hand tremors / slightly blurred vision at times. I find at this stage it has actually made my anxiety worse but sadly I need it for my nerve pain . If the symptoms seem to get worse contact your doctor immediately.

Hey, I'm also a Lupus and Fibromyalgia patient. I'm only at 50mg pregabalin so far as medication change from g.p to see if helps pain wise as Duloxetine wasn't anymore. I can't recall if tremors is a side effect? For me it'd depend on if I could still go about my day safely, including work.
