"40 y/o wf i&#039;m in day 3 of contrave and have lost 2 lbs. can&#039;t be water weight because i&#039;m drinking tons of water due to the dry mouth it gives me. no nausea or headache. i will say that i haven&#039;t been sleeping well however during the day, i feel almost &quot;speedy.&quot; not twitching or anxious but more energetic and focused whereas normally i could take a nap nearly anytime! i am very nervous about this medication though because in 2007 i had a seizure. i&#039;m not epileptic and they never found the cause but i keep reading how it lowers the seizure threshold. my doctor obviously thinks the risk is minuscule but i&#039;m still leary... will update:) cheers"
