Hi there. Maxgalin or pregabalin is used t otreat pain caused by nerve damage due to diabetes or shingles.  In your case, this nerve pain could be due to diabetes, compression of lumbosacral nerve roots due to lumbar disc prolapsed or degeneration. The other two drugs, eliwel or amitriptilline and duzella or duloxetine are anti depressants given to you for the associated depression.  Get an MRI lumbar spine to check lumbar disc prolapsed or degeneration. Consult a neurosurgeon soon. Take care.
