Hello catlover99 and welcome to NeuroTalk.

Could your symptoms be from Topamax? Yes. Like any medication, Topamax has side effects. Medication side effects should be rules out by your prescribing Dr. It is always possible for medication side effects to happen regardless of the length of time on a medication.

Information and side effects of Topamax:

If you are concerned you have MS you will need to see a Neurologist for testing which will include testing for other conditions which have similar symptoms to MS.

There is a diagnostic criteria for MS --- The McDonald Criteria.

Best wishes!
