You are not alone. The weight loss effects of Topomax, I believe, are overstated in the long run. Every time I see someone post about how they just started and are losing weight, I want to ask, hey, check back in 2-3 months. I lost weight when I went on it intially, but the weight returned after 3 months.
I did not have all the symptoms you described but I know others have. It definately is, "Dopamax" and dulls cognition. As an athlete, I found it made me noticably weaker, also.
Good Luck.
