The Topamax along with Lamictal help with mood stabilization. I just love my Topamax. Yes, you do get brain fog in the beginning. Good luck.
i know meds effect everyone differently, but i have been thinking about asking my pdoc about this med as well when i see him next week, as a second mood stabilizer - so i was wondering if you remember how long "in the beginning" was for the brain fog? just curious. i was scared to ask him before mostly because i thought maybe the brain fog would be more of a forever thing (as in, as long as you were taking the med.)
