topiramate is the generic name and is available in canada.
Thanks for the link!

You know, I believe I was taking Topiramate previously. My neuro on February 27th had prescribed me something for migraines, that I had to begin taking in smaller amounts and build up over the weeks. I stopped taking it at the time that I was told "It's MS" thinking the headaches were resulting from MS alone.

Now I'm curious as heck, so I'm going to call the pharmacy to find out exactly what drug it was that I was taking

I called and it was indeed Topiramate, so looks like I'll be asking about this one again and taking it to see if it helps. Like I said, previously I had been taking it and stopped before a week due to the MS deal at the time.

My first Nystatin prescription for my burning mouth was in July 2007. Eek. So the burning mouth has been around that long. Of course, Nystatin didn't fix the problem, and I didn't have yeast mouth hehe.
