> Thank you so much! That made me feel a lot better. I WILL take double the time to work up to 100 mg. Better safe than sorry. And I'm not all that concerned about the weight loss. I can do it on my own. I just want to get rid of the damn headaches using a drug that is safe and that won't make me gain MORE weight.

BUT slow down.... quadruple up on the time you are going to adjust to this med.....
two weeks between each increase at 25mg an increment <GGG>>as for weight gain on Topomax.... was back in to see my primary care physician today because I cannot shake this wretched cough and my asthma inhalers aren't doing it either;
well, sportsfans, I have just hit another weight loss crash... eight pounds since Thursday. I have no interest at all in food; have to force myself to eat at least one small meal a day, mostly protein with some yoghurt as I am back on antibiotics to deal with thisI was elated the day I discovered I could wear a size ten jean or dress pant; the size seven is a shock... wonder when it stops...
