>new user of topamax myself and a little worried at the fast rate of increase my Physician
popped me on.....50 mg 1st day 75 mg 2nd and 3rd then 100 mg 4th 5th 125 etc ...... working to 200 fast and Im experiencing some problems! It has only been a week and Im wondering if any of you have had severe arm and leg pain? (as in shooting sharp pains) Doc says expect nerves to act up but this is a little crazy(hee..hee) ...though I am feeling much less suicidal day by day...(DX PTSD with no satisfaction in many years on many meds ...)Im surprised at the quick results already as far as my mood swings but pain is unbearable???? connected ...not connected...has anyone else experienced this? Thanks.....Bonnie
(I am documemting changes just in case related to increase at fast rate....hope all is well as you all sound so positive with effect and with wieght as well and I am also a 55 lb extra due to many little pills in past 15 years! )hi im a new topomax user. after years of suffering from frequent, severe, mood swings and numerous meds i was finally sent for a psychiatric evaluation and taken off prozac and put on topomax. just stated this week with 25mg daily for the 1st 2wks. then 25mgs bid along with serzone. i am very hopeful at this point. i have put on 30 lbs this last year and am totally disgusted by my binge eating. any info will be welcomed. thanx for the outlet. archer
