Hi
this is the 4th day on 15 mgs of Topamax and I feel the anxiety and tremors getting worse. I also am not sleeping soundly, though I am not a great sleeper anyway. I was just hoping Top. wouldn't make the early morning waking stuff worse.I also have terrible jaw pain on my left side. It hurts to open my mouth or chew. Is this TMJ? OH MY, it hurt and it going to make eating pretty tough if this persists. Could I be clenching and not knowing it?
I so, so hope this is start up issue with Top. Because so far I really like how my brain feels. I am not as overreactive and short fused as normal. I also feel less depressed (though no hypomania, yeah!). I am SO SENSITIVE to activating meds. Does anyone know if this med is on the buzzy side? My impression was that is was NOT. I switched from Trileptal because that was activating!Does anyone know if the anxiety lessen or abate as the dosage increases?
I am a terrible gunniea pig.
Thanx
Chloe
