Migraine Prevention
"I started taking Topamax 12 years ago after one of my migraines sent me out of my classroom &amp; into the ER. After the initial few weeks of disorientation, halo vision, &amp; tingling/numbness, my body adjusted to the meds &amp; I had almost 10 years of maybe two headaches per year. A miracle! When menopause hit, my migraines came roaring back with a vengeance. But I stayed on Topamax &amp; my neurologist added other meds to supplement. Things are better now; Topamax has been a lifesaver for me. But it takes some time to let the side effects settle out &amp; for your doctor to tweak the dosages."
