Study Summary

The hypothesis of this study is that pregabalin, 150 mg bid, will reduce general daytime pain in patients diagnosed with diabetic peripheral neuropathy and that it will also reduce the level of pain associated with walking. Consequently, it is hypothesized that the reduction in pain will result in an increase in the amount of walking they do during the day, improvements in their gait, balance, risk of falls and sleep patterns.

Primary Outcome

The falls risk will also be ascertained using the long-form Physiological Profile Assessment. The Physiological Profile Assessment has been validated in prospective studies of falls in both community and institutional settings, and predicts those at increased risk of falling with 75-79% accuracy. The Physiological Profile Assessment includes tests of vision (edge contrast sensitivity, high/low contrast visual acuity, depth perception), sensation (ankle touch sensitivity, leg proprioception), leg
