Lexxey,
Your aunt was 88 with half her red hair! Now I know why you feel the way you do about your red. I'm 51 with very little gray and I love my hair, I don't want Topamax to thin it too much. It's always a joke with in-laws (I don't know much of my real family), at holidays, they always want to know when exactly am I going to gray???
But I can't imagine anything being in the league of Depakote for out and out hair loss nightmares. I'd lose when I'd shampoo, I'd lose when I'd sleep. My husband was cursing and plunging out the shower drain. Hairs were wrapped around the legs of my pet birds. I was shedding everywhere and all the time. And that was well underway after three months of treatment. Ugh! Topamax does not yet compare. Please remind me that I said this later on if I really start dropping hair. :)
Topamax can be very kind to the figure though. But what a trade-off!
Thanks for stopping by the Topamax board.
My best,Diane
