Topomax Side Effects
Just wondered whether anyone else has experienced tingling in their hands in feet while taking Topomax? I know this is a known side effect however my Neuro said this is not common and if I remember correct he said had something to do with lowering levels of Potassium...does this sound right to anyone? It almost feels like my hands and feet are thawing after being really cold (for lack of a better description) This happened after I got up to a dose of 75mgs (currently up to 100mgs)
As a side note...Topomax (100mg/day) and Gabapentin (1800mg/day) seems to be a great combo for me pain wise (in combo with my pain meds). I had the flu last week and not taking my meds really took a toll on me...I noticed how much I really did need them and how much they did help with the pain...
