And I love the cute pup in the picture (but I am a rather doggy person).

You mention not only Lyrica (Pregabalin) but also having taken Topomax (which often has weight loss as a side-effect, unlike most of the other anti-seizure meds which tend to result in carb craving and gain). Do you suffer from seizures of any kind, or from neuropathic pain (as these medications can be prescribed in both situations)?

Thanks Glenntaj! But I take the Topamax for Fibromyalgia and Degenerative Joint Disease. Ive tried several other medications, to which the Topamax has by far worked the best. I lost the weight long before going on Topamax...lol...I wish I had known Topamax had such a side affect as possible weight loss. I do know of another gal that takes it and has never had an issue with weight loss, so I don't know if that is true for everyone that takes it or not. Thanks again, Pebbs.
