Hi, I just thought I would give my take on Topamax. I took the same dose you are taking and after two weeks went up to 50 am&pm. I had mild tingeling from day 1, but it didn't bother me much. I really liked the fact that I didn't get hungry and felt like I was losing weight, but after a week of the higher dosage, my neck and shoulders became sooo sore and tense that I could barley move my head...I don't know if this was a side effect or not, but I quit taking it and my neck and shoulders have loosened up. I didn't like the fact that I couldn't think fast, that was the most bothersome for me. My doc put me on Strattera so we'll see how that goes. Good luck!
