Hi there. I had burning prickly sensations in my feet and blurred vision with Topomax. The prickly feeling went away immediately after I stopped Topomax, but I need contacts now. My vision hasn't returned to it's baseline in the last 2 months.
I am hesitant to use Topamax. I'm worry about barin fog issue. What is your advice?
The numbness & tingling can get bad at times & lasts so long it actually hurts.....I am still experiencing it and like I mentioned my dosage has not been increased for at least 6 months or more.
I do experience some slight brain fog but it's not very bad, and any carbonated drink tastes flat. So I have switched from Pepsi to sweet tea. I have been on it for 16 months this time and I have lost weight both times I have been on it....about 20 pounds both times.
It works well for me as a mood stabilizer. It did the first time as well.
Hope this helps.....

Hello,
I didn't try Topamax before but what I know is numbness and tingling are some of Topamax side effects. It become less with time.
Are numbness and tingling really bad? or u can handle it?
Do you have any other side effects? How long to use it?
Is Topamax useful as mood stabilizer and good for weight loss according to your experience?
