((Wrain))~have a speedy, restful recovery from your surgery.
Didn't know you went in, hope you're feeling better soon.
If you start the Depakote and Topamax in the AM~will you be ok alert-wise. I know both those meds can make some people feel groggy. They did to me anyway.
I think slow and steady is the way to go, and it sounds like you're doing just that and know what's best for you at this point.
Take care:-)
> Finally out of the Hospital from my back surgery and trolling the boards again. Yes, if the Doc is not listening to your complaints about your side effects to the Topamax I am with others...find another Dr. It is your healthcare, we have to learn how to make them listen to us. We know ourselves better than any of them ever will and they don't take the time out to listen to us.

Thinking doing the 2 Depokote and 2 Topamax in the AM instead of the PM. I am going to slowly try to get myself off the Paxil. What, if any, input do you all have?
