I was "titrating" with the Topamax, the doc had me take 25mg once a day for one week then 50mg.2nd week till I got to 100mg, which he claimed would or "maybe" start the weight loss thing, many "rave" about, but I got sick while I was just at 50mg. so he said wait till I stopped with my low grade temp. and diarhhea, then try again. Well, hey if the "client" has been complaining about being lethargic, etc.and now she feels sedated like depakote why on earth would she want to go back on the top? My weight gain is not due to the food, I'm eating the same, even less than when I was 30lbs thinner, but these meds make me so tired that I've become a lot less active. I'm hoping he'll let me taper off and get off of all this "BS", I've had enough now, the crisis are over and I feel it is time we take the "training wheels off". Sorry Cam, this wasn't directed at you, I appreciate any info you can furnish me with, honestly! I've just had a "go around" with my husband, and once again I'm feeling resentfull towards him, he is the reason I've been through all this, and if he can not be supportive but expects me to be supportive towards him, he'll have to go whistle, cause I've had it!! I think he needs these damn meds. more than I do! Sorry, just venting, sorry.
Thanks for your reply,
