I am on 200 mgs of topamax and it was doing good for reducing my neurapathy.Up until i developed new problems a few months ago!
The side affects have been hard to cope with.I do have short term memory loss.I also have a hard time finding the right words often and i cant spell worth a darn sometimes.
I went from 180 lbs down to 115 at one point.I have since put some weight back on..but we wont talk about that..
I had tried probably 5 other meds before i went on this one and decided to just deal with the side affects since it worked so well!!
Good luck!
