I feel so foolish!!!
I thought that the headaches I was getting from pushing myself like a maniac to the max dose of 400 mgs in 3 weeks of topamax were from too fast a titration! But then it occured to me that I should stand in the shower for a while because they seemed a lot like sinus headaches to me and steam is good for sinuses. I was about to post this to the board as if I had come up with some great idea. (I forgot that I had seen it the other day and even posted about it....duh!)So I guess I will get on the bandwagon for the sinus headache experience...
But I will also say that steam does help, even if you stand over a pot of hot water with a towel over your head (careful not to burn your face)
I think the med dries a person out and that makes the headaches come on.
