Thanks so much for the info, I really don't see any hair sheading but my hair definitely feels much thinner, I will add some things you mentioned. Also, If you are able to locate that info, post it when you can, I appreciate it. Take care!

> > BTW - Does anyone have that link Murphia posted re the other discussion group for Topamax users? Any help would be great. I couldn't find the old post! Thanks

> Vitamin C is a natural analgesic and boosts the immune system, something which, being a redhead I was born with almost none, and does so many other things, that I take huge amounts daily.... half in the morning and half in the evening as it is water soluble and if it is all taken at once half will be flushed out of the system; I have recently taken to splitting the dosage into thirds, actually and take 5000 mg every 8 hours... this is again something I give to my Chows as a matter of course but never thought to give to myself... and give to them for the same reasons I now take it after Murphia jogged my mind...
> the E is a simply wonderful natural source of so much that is valuable... again it is a vitamin I give to the dogs because they need it so totally and it is so good for the skin and hair... so I now take it myself... 800 IU a day and the zinc 25mcg unless I can find the 10mcg tablets (hard to do around here) makes it possible for the body to absorb the E, without the zinc the body can't absorb the E according to the vet and that works for people as well as dogs LOL...
> I had the info for the other site that Murphia mentioned and left it on the other computer when I came home... duh... shall see if someone at the course can send it to me...
