I was on Topomax for 6 weeks after having had migraines everyday for 6 months. After 3 weeks I had not had the first sign of a migraine. It was Heaven. The side effects from the Topomax were horrid. My point, though, I had decided it didn't matter if I had to put up with my teeth falling out as long as I didn't have those awful headaches everyday, but I started having that ringing (high pitched squeal) in my ears. My neuro. had me stop the Topomax immediately. He said that it could/ would cause permanent hearing damage quickly. I stopped the Topomax and two days later the squealing was gone. Now I am on Zoneqran, and having headaches everyday again. Oh well, he keeps telling me we'll find that good mix, it's trial and error, but I'm tired of the trials!
