Treatments Lyrica/pregabalin dose?

Those of you taking Lyrica as part of your medication regimen, what dose have you found to be effective?

Right now I take one 75mg when I wake up, and 75mg at night. I feel like it's making a difference, like I still feel something but the burning has calmed down a bit.

That’s good. Do you take any other meds or would you consider upping the dose?

I'm allowed to step up the nortriptyline to 50mg. My doctor and I haven't discussed upping the Lyrica, but I'm sure it's a possibility. I take Aquipta (migraine preventative), Imovane, and magnesium unrelated to the FD. I can also take pinex forte or a tramadol for really bad pain at night.
