migraine prevention
"This medicine changed my life. I went from bedridden to active. I still get flare ups, but I can function in them now. My pain is greatly reduced. I no longer have constant flu like symptoms or muscle spasms. My pain has been reduced to a dull ache  and I can manage without narcotics. I unfortunately did show the rare side effect of hair loss. I solved that by cutting it short and dying it purple! Topamax is also sold as a diet pill, so I also lost about 40 pounds, which is helpful for a lot of fibromyalgia patients since we tend to gain weight from lack of activity or taking meds like Lyrica . In fact, I ended up on Topamax because my insurance wouldn't cover Lyrica. Best thing to ever happen to me since I became ill!"
