I'd be interested in more detail. I just checked a half dozen or so online interaction sites, and none of them mentioned any interaction between tramadol and pregabalin (except one—in combination with alcohol).

Is it possible your pharmacist meant there would be an interaction between one or both of those and something else you're taking?

If there really is some risk of serious brain damage, I think people on this site (the PN forum in particular, as so many are taking those two) would want to know.
