I didn't realize that was a side effect of the Topomax. I have been Mrs. Dropsy Fingers when I have been taking it and trip over my own feet. Fall over for no reason and I have ALWAYS had good balance! It's interesting that you said Phentermine is a stimulant. I had never heard that it was a stimulant, only an appetite suppressant. When I took it a number of years ago I never felt hyped up. It never did anything much, but then again, I didn't take it long. I wasn't very patient. The Xenical works well but my insurance won't pay for it and it is rather punishing when you eat too much fat. I think I am just going to go off drugs and if I feel too bad then I will find something different. I was hoping that the Topomax would work for me, but I was wrong. It helped for some time but then it dulled me and made me apathetic, not to mention the brain f*rts that just DID NOT go away, and it keep me from sleeping well. I have just been plain ol grouchy since I went back on it and it has depressed me more than anything...oh well
