I am taking Topamax for bi-polar disorder and severe restless leg syndrome. I have been on everything under the sun. I gained 55 pounds during the Depakote years and so I am trying Topamax to try and shed a little of that. Topamax rules as far as relieving the symptoms of restless leg syndrome. I have never had anything that came close to working as well as this.
As far as feeling dull, I have recently been on Klonipin and Gabitril and I feel really DENSE! Kinda in a fog. So that hasn't really changed for me. Maybe I am doing a little better.
I can't drink soda due to a recent fusion surgery and so I drink about 60 ounces of water and 20 ounces of Gatorade daily and I have no problem with the way they taste. I try to drink lots of water because they say that the Topamax can cause kidney stones. I figure I'll flush whatever is in there out before it gets big enough to hurt. LOL
