After after a few months on topamax I went on lexapro for my mood change. I lost weight, had the metallic taste, loss of words , stumbling and more. I have weaned off because I could not stand the side effects. I still have migraines frequently. I truly believe the topamax has permanently changed my personality. I cannot get off the lexapro. Also I believe I have some kind of kidney problem left from it. Is all this possible?
