>>>>>>Do you think just 0.5 of Risperdal can really do that?
It did it to me, but of course, I'm not everyone. Maybe others have had better experiences.
>>>>>>I'm going to ask my doctor if I can go off it, that's for sure!
Talking with your doctor would be the best, to find out what may work for you, and to see if going off it would help curb the weight gain. But talk to your doctor, so he/she is aware of your concerns~communication is best IMHO.
>>>>>>I don't think it is the Topamax because I've heard that tends to make one loose weight, if the dosage is high enough.
I started to lose weight on Topamax at about the 1st month, by the 3rd month, I had lost 25 pounds and it was coming off QUICK.
