Re: Re: Topamax
Posted by linda on 03/17/06 at 09:14 PMI have been taking topamax and after 2 months it has been very helpful for a lot of my problems. I initially started it for stress headaches. Later found that my pain had subsided, slept better, mood was better? I was doing well but found I was having numbness to my face, hands, and feet. Saw my pcp, he checked my bmp and told me I was a little acidotic. My co2 levels were decreasing. He decreased my dose, I felt worse and now we are increasing slowly again. I wish we had never lowered the dose. For me it has been a wonderful medicine for fibromyalgia. It did not make me feel dopey either. I started with 50mg in the morning and 100 mg @ night. I am taking 75mg just at night hoping that it helps without the numbness, but I still experience it. Doctor says it is not fatal
