Paris43 411 Posted February 8 (edited) My doctor just put me on Topomax a couple of days ago...I was wondering if anyone here is taking that and if so, how does it affect you?? So far, all it is doing to me is making me feel weird and making me feel really grumpy...I was put on it for a number of different things, my headaches, weight and mood..Any comments or suggestions about this medication would be most appreciated!! --Paris43 8-]] Edited February 8 by Paris43 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paris43 411 Posted February 10 I am thinking now that I might just stop this medication because it is doing nothing for me except making me extremely grumpy, it is not helping my mood or my pain..UGH!! =-(( 1 ladysmurf reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ladysmurf 4,168 Posted February 10 i would call your doctor, it takes a week or two to see a difference. you might have to wait it out ... but call the doctor and ask and tell them how you feel exactly.. 1 Paris43 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paris43 411 Posted February 13 Update: I am now off of the Topamax--My father is a retired pharmacist and I asked him if I should call the doctor about the Topamax and he said no, that I could stop taking it..My father was a pharmacist for 30+ years and he gives me good advice about my meds., so, that is why I stopped taking it..My mood is a lot better now...I no longer feel so grumpy..8-]] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
