So, that is why I am inclined to think it is the Topamax. After reading what others have posted about it's side affects about balance it adds up to me.

Gene,
I hope and pray the neuropathy gets better. If it is being caused by the medication I hope your physician is able to prescribe something different that will not cause the same problems you are experiencing.
I haven't thought much about seizures in close to 30 years now since having surgery to correct it when I was a child. I began having seizures as a result of having spinal meningitis at 8 months old where I almost died. It caused brain damage that led to the seizures, in which the surgery had cut out the damaged part and as I had stated earlier it cured my seizures. I had Petite Mal seizures.
I wish you the best!
Best wishes,
