Hi, I'm not on Topamax, but I am considering it, so I've done some reading up on it. What dose did you start on and how quickly did you go up to 100mg?
Also, I don't know about the water and back pain thing, but it can cause kidney stones as a less common side effect. The tingling in your extremities is common. It's parasthesias. That happens in about one of three people. Also, cognitive problems can be common, especially if you go up in dose too quickly.
That's about all I know from my reading. Hopefully someone else will post who is on it.
Take care,
gg
