I have been on Topamax since Jan of 08 for complex partial seizures. I was very pleased with it at first but started having some more unpleasant symptoms. My hair recently started falling out about two months ago in massive handfuls! I was and am very upset about it. I did have the tingling in the hands and feet when I first started taking it and I don't drink sodas at all which I did all the time before. I did not lose weight at first but did a couple of months ago when I got very ill with a GI problem. I actually lost about 20 lbs in about a month. This is when my hair started falling out. I have had a lot of labs drawn and my TSH was undetectable but my thyroid levels (T3 and T4 are normal) and my antibodies are normal as well so, there is no telling what is going on?? I just want off of this medication before I am bald!!

goon fda.gov and file a consume complaint from it takes about 10 minutes to complete. If enough of us complain they might actually start looking at this medication
