My name is Marcy Barnes and i would like to show you my personal experience with Topamax.

I am 46 years old. Have been on Topamax for 30 days now. When I got to 25 mg once a day all side effects ended and I have not had a migraine. I am back to my old self. No weight loss unfortunately.

I have experienced some of these side effects -
continuous migraine for almost 2 mos. With 75mg extreme dizziness, crying, sleeing all the time, slurred speach, burning sensation in mouth, skin felt creepy. I was told to wean off myself off.

I hope this information will be useful to others,
Marcy Barnes
