> It was beneficial at 75 mg but after giving it 7 weeks the stage fright stomache butterflies and constant diahoreah ~can't spell that darn word (to the point where I was cr*pping myself) was too much to bear.


In what ways was Topamax helping you? What are the symptoms of your illness when left untreated?

Sometimes, we get caught in an in-between state when a drug is close - but not quite - to being at a therapeutic level. I have experienced this phenomenon myself a few times. Does it get worse towards the end of a dosing period? I have no clue as to what the odds are that this is what is happening to you. 100mg might be worse than 75mg. In this case, you would be quite angry with me. It is something to consider, though.
