Topamax/Alcohol effects? New Year's Eve, I imbibed much alcohol and had a great time, but was couch-bound and fairly useless the entire next day (moreso than a normal hangover). I will likely be avoiding alcohol WHENEVER possible (in other words, perhaps, only when I have absolutely nothing to do the next day like New Year's Eve).
I've been having a sore throat (could be a cold due to cold/rainy weather but perhaps more susceptible due to topamax?).
Appetite has started to be suppressed a bit during the day, but since I'm a fairly decent binge-eater, once I get started at night, there I go ... :) I understand, that some weight loss effects, if they do occur, are more likely to occur at around a 200/mg or above dosage.
Oh yeah, some visual blurriness (of course, I did get lasik eye surgery a month ago with similar side effects but this could easily be topamax-related since it had been a while since I had this now, and I've read of such on past posts ... eye pressure, etc.)
