Now I wonder if that was the reason. hmmmmm?
I find that when my tingling gets really bad, and mind you, I've only been on this Topamax for a week, eating a kiwi helps for a day or so. I've tried taking a K supplement, but the one I have only gives you 3% of your daily value and I'm thinking I need a whole lot more to overcome my symptoms.

All in all, kind of annoying. But if this helps in the long run, I'll take it.
