I've taken topamax for approximately five weeks. I had experienced migraines at least twice weekly for more than fifty years, so it's been remarkable that I have been migraine free for more than a month. My biggest side effect has been abdominal pain. I wasn't given any education about side effects, and I was really worried when I began to suffer severe, really severe abdominal cramps about two weeks ago. I didn't have a clue about a connection between the medication and my tum until I went to Patient First one night in terrible pain and was asked if I were on any meds. When I got home, I got online, and realized that the tingling in my feet, and my memory lapses were all side effects. I've been in such a euphoric state because I haven't had a migraine, that I've ignored anything negative that's been happening. Would I stop taking Topamax because of the side effects? Not unless they become much worse - I can live with them - the migaines were far more dibilitating. It wasn't that long ago that I would be lying in a darkened room with my head throbbing, every sound was magnified and even a dim light pierced my eyes with pain. Shots of Demeraol and Imitrex were only temporary and didn't always work so tingles, and memory failiings and even tummy cramps are nothing by comparison!

Been on 200mg. tpamax about 6 weeks. Problem swelling of the legs and tingling in toes they sometimes turn blue. Is this a side affect of topamax or something else. Doctors have no clue what the problem is any suggestions on what to do.
