Lightbulb Hello and welcome to the board.

I agree with Liza... dump the alcoholic connection.

I am looking seriously at your Topamax. This drug creates a metabolic
acidosis in patients, by lowering bicarbonate levels. When that happens,
you get alot of neuro symptoms!

Basically I think this drug is HORRIBLE in the long run.

I think you should discuss another treatment modality with your doctor.
Many of the serious side effects of this drug were discovered post marketing.
(glaucoma, kidney stones, acidosis).
