hi Rainee, I have seen some scary posts also about Topamax-but I've been on it for 2 months and it has been a miracle for me. If you want to know anything please feel free to ask me.
Please remember, all meds work differently on everyone and everyone has different experiences. All you can do is give the meds a fair shot. I know it's hard but it's the only way to go. I fought so many times. I got scared when I read some of the side effects of these meds. Topamax is one of the few meds I gave a fair chance and it is working for me.
Good luckgal
