Topamax did not give me any side effects the first time I took it last year, but this time I cannot bear the side effects. No appetite, so drowsy and fatigued and the drug won't let me sleep. Numbness all over and while I took it I felt so hot like I was running a fever. Time to go back to the neuro. Never doing topamax again.

@melaninacrap I have heard of marijuana usage for epilepsy and other uses. I used marijuana for a 2 week span and got off of it when I was 17. I'm 33 now, so I'm taking a different approach now. Good luck with your rehab.
dude I took this pill 4 2 years and a half! BUT it was a shit I felt like dumb sometimes or lost I switched it 4 a low dose of maryjane and it did like the best results for my anxiety and obsession.. Note : I am an adict and ive tried lots of drugs this pill was given after my rehab ended ... now im only on ganja..
I actually just started "phasing out" of Keppra (after taking it for 2 years), and "phasing in" Topamax. I was taking Lamictal with the Keppra, and still will be taking Lamictal with the Topamax. Anything to say about Topamax? Experiences, things like that? (And I hope everything goes really well with the new Keppra decision!)
@chrisgrosek I was going on 3 years without any seizures. Then 2 months ago, I blacked out for just 10 seconds and realized that since I can't drive for 6 months I might as well see what is out there. Keppra was the one I had not used for my types of seizures and it seems to be working out fine so far. Topamax with me at first my neurologist who saw me overdosed me. I weighed 300 pounds and then was to 240 and skin and bones. The same to you on your your drug cocktail conquest!
It worked for me but the side effects were awful! I didn't want to participate in conversations anymore because I'd lose my train of thought or couldn't think of the word I need at the moment. Even simple words. It was so embarrassing. The only good thing is you will probably lose weight really fast. I ate healthy, just not a lot. If you stop taking it, the weight comes back really fast too because your appetite will increase. I hope it works for you.
