Anyone tried Pregabalin?

And what dose? I've heard good things about it and am on 25mg but don't notice a big shift. I feel like increasing it might help my nervous system regulation and OCD/looping thoughts.

I feel like I'm going insane. Undianosed but my father has it and I have many, many symptoms (heart rate goes from 60 to 135 when brushing my teeth, for example). My blood pressure and blood volume are low (90/50 most days) but I have PTSD and GAD, so am in constant flight or fight and hypervigilance. I've been prescribed Propranolol but when I stand, I feel like I'm going to pass out (10mg) if I take it. I'm stuck in a really horrible, frustrating situation and my general practitioner has no interest in helping/diagnosing ("What is a tilt test??"). I plan to see a cardiologist but it's expensive where I live. I just need some encouragement that I'm not going crazy and that this is manageable because I'm in tears. Edit to add that I also have EDS, which has its own issues...
