My cognitive preoblems lasted about a month and a half maybe 2 months. And I still occasionally have a problem with word finding, but not very often. I noticed it last night and the word just came to me "anticipate!!!" YES! But, I don't know if it's from the Topamax or just forgetfulness, you know? I have a real problem with my memory which has nothing to do with meds. (Strange how that word just came to me though....)
But, again I am very tolerant of medications. I have low side effects from them. I can't speak from experience about Tegretol or Trileptal because I didn't try either. But, you could do an archive search here to see what others who were on them faced. That could let you know the type of side effects to expect.
How's your thesis coming along? Is the "fog" lifting? I'm waving my magic med wand to help lift the fog and help restore you mental capabilities 110%. Here's looking at you and wishing you luck on your thesis! Also, if you could buy me a house while you're at it, I'd appreciate it. Just a small, 6 bedroom, 3 bath is fine for now :) Take care, Karen
