Yes, I do get some tingling especially in my face, and some on my left side. It doesn't really bother me too much though, and has pretty much disappeared after I had been taking the drug for a few months. It still happens occasionally, but not badly.

I posted about topamax in the migraine/headache forum and another member mention that her neuro told her to eat kiwi for the tingling. It's super high in potassium and had ought to help. I took her advice (as I'm keen on the fruit) and it does seem to make a difference.

I haven't been on it long, but I'm...sceptical. I'll let you all know how it goes when it's been a few months.
