I just got an e-mail (a rare and wondrous thing) from my neurologist. He wants to go ahead and switch my Namenda to Topamax. So much for cutting-edge cures! I poked around the Topamax web site and experienced that warm and fuzzy feeling created by pharmaceutical PR. Sort of not holding my breath regarding outcomes, but who can help it? I like the "sprinkle capsule." Are they rainbow colors, like on donuts?

Love your blog...I'm a big fan of sprinkles on donuts!
Ohhhhh, Topamax was not good for me. I have heard it is great for some people, but for me it lived up to its nickname: Dopamax. It made feel dopey. I hope it works for you!!!!
I have been using botox which has helped with the daily headaches and lessened the severity of the migraines.
interesting; you are being taken off the drug I need to be kept on. I have been taken off by my insurance company. by trial and much error and agony, rejection from my body and allergy, I finally am handed a med that works and the mighty insurance company becomes dictator.
