Hi Cinnaman,
I'm sorry to hear that you're doing so bad on Zonegran! You're symptoms sound just like what I was experiencing on Topamax. Fortunately for me, I have NONE of those side effects so far with Zonegran, and am doing quite well with it. Since quitting Topamax and going on Zonegran, I can:See again!
Drink/taste soda! (although I don't...trying to cut back)
Find the simplest of words again!
Toes and fingers don't tingle!
Acne - GONE!!!
Irritation/Anxiety is gone!BUT, one of the side effects I am still getting is weight loss, which I need quite badly and don't mind at all!
I hope you find something better that works for you - have you tried other mood stabilizers? I'm assuming you have, since Zonegran is usually way on down the line in the order of MS's.
Let me know how you're doing,
Sooshi
