Topamax and yahoo

Oh My God! Reading all of these is like reading about myself. In the last 8 weeks I have gone from being a somewhat normal person to a babbling idiot! I cannot concentrate on anything, cannot function in any normal manner, have become so depressed it is all I can do to get out of bed and get my kids to school in the morning and get myself to work,,,,,,,,we have never eaten out so much in our lives! I miss more work now then when I had migraines, and my doctor will not listen. I have tried to tell him that the Topamax is not working for me, but he insists that I keep taking it. I have tried cutting back, and the effects are worse then, I become edgy and irritable, and really cant function then. What do I do? I have developed a terrible wheezing and now have to use an inhaler and breathing machine, and have never had to use one of these before in my life! I have 8 year old twins, and am only 41 years old and am not ready to die. This is the worst stuff in the world and should be taken off the market! ****** (don't know if this is allowed here, but if so, somebody please contact me with any suggestions how to get off this terrible stuff)

I have been on Topamax for 2 years and have notice an increase in head sweating with every increase. I am now at 150mg. Has anyone else experienced thislplease email me mim02703@yahoo.com

Taking Topamax for 2 years started out at 25 mgs 3 times a day for a mood stabalizer (bi-polar). Had tingling in hands and feet sometimes in face. Lost waight, pop tasts nasty, sleepy, short term memory loss, slurred speach. Now I take 100mg at bed time have no symptoms except I still am able to controll my eating (had a problem with over eating) no more road rage but I still felf a little depressed and did cry so I was not to stable until Citalopram 10mg at bedtime and Adderall XL 10mg in the morning was added. Now I finally feel like a totaly normal person. No more anxiety, mood swings, crying, paranoia,or any other weird stuff. I feel pretty good. Rarely I get pins and needles in my hands or feet or I forget where I put something.
