> Sorry I'm not answering your ? here, but I was told by my pdoc that Remeron is now being given to terminal AIDS patients because it makes normal people gain so much weight. I gained about 20 in seriously about 2 weeks. That is definitely the culprit weightwise and it's a real bitch.
Wow! That is unbelievable! I guess it makes sense though seeing as how much weight I have gained on Remeron in a relatively short period of time. I was 6'1" 180lbs before I went on it and now am about 210lbs.. I am lucky that I am tall, but I would still like to shed the weight and thus far exercise has not done very much.
Guess I'll just have to see how the Topomax works. I am really hoping that it will help with the anxiety also though.
Thanks for the response,
Rich
