"i&#039;ve been on phentermine / topamax combo for about a week now. when i started i was 218 i&#039;m down to 210 so that&#039;s 8 lbs in a week.:) yea! but the topamax is nasty stuff makes me feel weird , eyes sensitive to light blurred vision. confusion hard to concentrate, itchy skin. and grumpy . thank god my plan is to only use this for a short while. it dose seem to help with hunger. however it&#039;s still not a cure all.  for me it&#039;s worth it because i couldn&#039;t lose the weight my own. if you can stand the side effects i would recommend it."
