Hi, I have been taking topamax for about 5 weeks now, maybe a little longer and only 25mg. I have to say my migraines are gone for the most part, except little what I would call headaches that don't last long now and then and I did have one migraine around my menstrual cycle. My side effects have been abnormal menstrual cycle, altered taste (especially pop), slight not hungry feeling, and urinary problems (UTI, frequent need to go, etc...) A couple of side effects that I think are from the medicine because I have seen them listed as side effects are sore throat, tongue has a burning sensation, but not all the time. Has anyone else had these side effects? I have read them as side effects (sore throat, burning sensations), but have never read anywhere of anybody actually having them, especially the tongue thing. Any input would be helpful. Thanks
