I was started out verrrry low..I think 15 mg for a week or two and then gradually went up..I was up to 100 mg but I started in August..so that's about..7 months ago? I was at 75mg until Feb when I started getting headaches again and he said the birth control I started to take was making it not work so well..he phrased it better, but Ive still got the "Dope-a-max" in my system so of course its not coming to me right now. So I went to 25mg and 75mg at night..thats when I started to notice everything more and things that I didnt even think could be associated with it I now realize were because of the topamax. I went to this website (askapatient.com) where people review medications and tell their experiences with them and some of the bad reviews of it were horrifying! I know there are some people out there who have been blessed with this medicine and it is still pretty new..but I guess my body just reacted to it differently..
Im an english major and Im trying to finish up my degree..1 year to go..so writing, speaking, and making it sound pretty is pretty much what I have to do..and Topamax wont let me do that..
