Thanks for the words of encouragement Lexie! I only found this site a few days ago and it feels like such a weight has been lifted to read about other people's experiences, and to realize that I am NOT alone in all this! 10 years ago I had breast cancer, and now volunteer with a support group for breast cancer survivors - finding this site is like finding a support group for myself. Thanks again - I hope others find these threads as comforting. - limey
> Limey, I think you are the right track trying out the Topamax. What worked for me was Topamax with Lamictal, another anti-sezuire medication that has AD qualities but no history of weight gain. You may want to ask your doctor about it. Everyone is different, I am offering some friendly advise from someone who has been there. I think you have the right attitude to go into this looking on the bright side, I did and maybe that is why I was so successful. Topamax is not a magic bullet. For me it helped with the sweet cravings that were so overwhelming with the AD's and the cravings to "Snack" at times when I normally wouldn't. Let us know how you are doing.
