"i think i made a post a long time ago about my experience with topiramate. but i can&#039;t recall if i did or not. anyway. i was prescribed topiramate for my migraines. at first it was all good my migraines were handled well and i lost 30 lbs in 4 months. it&#039;s now 2 years later. i&#039;ve experienced multiple side affects. my fingers tingle. my hands shake. i frequently feel as if i can&#039;t speak , like everything i want to say is on the tip of my tongue. i think of what i&#039;m going to say and it comes out jumbled . when i started i weighed 238 i was at one point 207. i&#039;d never been so &quot;small&quot;. losing weight so quick didn&#039;t make me feel good. ive been off it for a month and now weigh 240.. maybe it was worth it .."
