okay, so today was the first day i started my topamax, within 1 hour my face and arms and hands started to severly tingle, not fun, its very bothersome, i feel like i had some very bad botox, LOL. I'm not sure if i'm gonna increase from 100 to 200 mg, i'll see what happens within a week.

After reading some of the stories about Topamax,, I wanted to share with you about my experience on this drug,,, I started off at 25mg in the morning and 25mg at night,,, I was not the same person,,, I felt like I was having an out of body experience,, My feet would tingle all the time and the worst part is that I did not remember driving to work one morning and how I even functioned that day,,, It was really bad,,, It all boiled down to,,, too high of a dosege for me to start with,,, I was only taking this for migrains,,, My Dr, lowered the mg to 25mg once a day and I did fine ,,, But the tingling of the feet still continued. i am no longer taking topamax,, and I feel better with out it!!
