I have been on topomax for nearly a year and have many of the same problems you guys have but a new one has popped up on me that scared the shit outta me and no one can seem to figure out what is causing it.
During sex just before orgasm my brain felt like it was going to explode!!
All I could do was hold my head in my hands and roll on the bed. this pain lasted for almost 8 hours. the next day i felt fine and went motorcycle riding and while racing my buddy and while passing him(More Excitement) It hit again and it was all I could do to stay on the bike. Went to the hospital and they did cat scans mri ,mra tests and have found nothing wrong w/my head .So my ? is could this be coming from my topomax??

I have been taking Lipitor for years; 20mg I believe. While I have been watching for side effects nothing really powerful enough struck me to believe without a doubt that it was the drug bothering me. I had already had incidents with other statins prior to the Lipitor.
Recently the bottoms of my feet became very tender, but I ignored it because I am on my feet all day and I also run. I had also noticed that the back of my thumbs felt like I was pinching a nerve because they would "snap" and then become numb and tingle like they were "asleep". Finally I realized that my feet were getting steadily worse. They felt like I had been wearing shoes too tight all day; or wearing new shoes. I would especially notice them after I had put my legs up to rest for awhile. It would always seem worse when I stood back up.
I went off the Lipitor as the likely problem. My feet have improved over a month but they are not right yet. Then of course I start to doubt the original discomfort. But I generally feel better throughout my body (including an improved libido)so I am not going back on them if I can possibly get away without the drugs.
If anybody else had the specific discomfort to their feet I would really like to know.

I am pregnant in my thrid trimidster. My doctor perscribed me these CEPHALEXIN MONOHYDRATE 1tab/x3 a day. BUT: I only took ONE A DAY (I was too scared to take more with baby) and found over the last 3days I have been very EMOTIONALLY ERACTIC, feeling faint and energyless during the day, with a lack of desire to eat. I have swelling from pregnancy in my feet but my arms were the limbs I noticed going numb with my hands blotchy and tingly. I felt nauscious. When I did decide to rest/ sleep I have such a terrible awake feeling and stressed that my eyes are close but I am so very awake.
Thankyou to everyone who posted their symptoms as this helped me!

I've been on the pill for almost two weeks now, the first week I had no symptoms then on Monday I started bleeding and have been bleeding ever since. I hope the symptoms go away soon because I don't know how much longer I can take the bleeding espically since I just had my period less than two weeks ago.

My main problem with Lisinopril is the coughing. Coughing, coughing. coughing. I will be fine for 2 to 3 hours and then start with this awful cough. People will actually turn away from me if I am out shopping and a cough begins. I presume they believe it is contagious. Sometimes I end up vomiting and I cannot catch my breath. Coughing at night is really a problem because of lack of sleep. Doctors believe my cough is due to allergies because I have post nasal drip. However, none of the medications they have given me stop the coughing. I never had this problem until I began taking Lisinopril. Lisinopril is my first Blood Pressure medication.

I have been with my boyfriend almost two years. I have had mirena for two and a half years. Keep in mind Im only 20 i have no sex drive, im always tired, i don't want to do anything. I am a emotional person nut lately i cry over everything. And last night me and my bf had sex(normal positions that we have never had issues with) and it was the worst pain ever. We kept switching it up thinking it would go away. WRONG!!! It only got worse to the point of me sobbing, feeling like i was going to get sick, and my bf feeling terrible. So i thought today i'd feel better but i feel even worse. I feel like im being stabbed in my stomach. I have a terrible pain in my butt. When i cough it hurts when i pee it hurts. All this pressure it seems like i cant do anything without pain.if i move to fast the pain is sharp and quick. What should I do?
