Don't be scared of Topamax. You never know how your body will react to it until you try it. If you titrate up the dose slowly any side effects should be minor and if bothersome they go away quickly. Also, as you go up the dose the side effects go away after a few days anyway as your body gets used to the drug. I have not had any problems with it except for sporadic tingling hands and feet in the evening which is only mildly bothersome. No mental fog, no verbal problems, no sleepiness at 150 mg.
