Cam,
Here I go again, how is the combo Lithium (900mgs) and Topamax (25mgs The First Week, then more will follow) ? My major complaint to my doc today was the 30lb weight gain from the depakote and then replaced with lithium last Oct., I told him that my major problems were now in the past and I felt the meds. were great but maybe now "overkill" plus causing me to be lethargic, lose hair, and that old "nasty" weight gain. So he said I can gradually get off the celexa (20mgs) and switch to Topamax being that I wasn't depressed unexplainly while taking the celexa (on for 2 yrs already). Back to my question, (I tend to get off track) Is this a good combo, lithium and topamax? Side effects don't sound too nice. Fatigue! I do not need that, do most people experience it? Thanks ahead of time for any input.
