I had a vision exam & the doctor referred me to an opthamologist because she thinks she sees holes in my retinas. In additional, the myopia became much, much worse while I was on Topamax (200mg 2x day = 400mg day between the end of November and January). I'm very concerned. My GP told me to stop the Topomax as quickly as possible. S. was entirely dismissive of my concerns about the peripheral lights and worsening vision. His words "Anything can be found online." He shrugged it off, told me to decrease and stop the Topomax, but denied that it DOES cause exactly the optical issues I was have (and am now having). Appointment with opth on Wednesday. __________________ |

jeff put the meat loaf into the oven for an hour.
Not sure which veggies we will have. I am doing laundry and hope it doesn't interrupt dinner . I will just put them on air dry while we have dinner. hang up clothes and such before art walk. the 2nd saturday of the month. It is fun. Jeff just informed me that a colleague of his son is going to perform down town at 6pm when it starts. We won't make it I did not know of his performing. bizi hugs to all that need them __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

I'm sorry Beth. Hopefully there's something that can be done.

That melatonin/valerian stuff isn't nearly as good as the plain melatonin. I'm really sorry because it's a waste of $20. I am going to check on returning it, though. I believe I'm having one of the w/d symptoms I get when I decrease K-pin. Sooo disappointing. The symptom is breathlessness. I'll do a normal activity and can't catch my breath. It's not only creepy, it's very annoying. So, gotta back it up. Instead of dropping my a.m. dose entirely I'll take .5 in the morning and see how it goes. But I have to feel victory over every decrease that's successful. Going from 1mg a.m. to .5 is major. __________________ |

way to go from 1-.5 way to go!
That is huge. Have you heard of the ashton manual about switching to valium (I think) It is much easier getting off the benzo because it has a long half like and the dose can be liquid towards the end so you can use drops. Instead of cutting bits of klonipin. bizi __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |

I hope you feel better. Cutting it in half is a major deal.

Thank you so much bizi and Mm. I really appreciate the support.
Yes, I am familiar with the Ashton Method. For some reason it seems hard to find a provider who will agree to using it, though. But I'm so glad you mentioned it bizi, because I'll remember to ask my new PA if she'll try it with me. __________________ |
