Freaked me out, and my husband did not appreciate the goo

I've had this problem with another medication, but I've noticed that it has intensified since I've started taking 50 mg of topamax: my left leg literally loses function in the morning sometimes, it's the strangest thing. I can walk a few steps, then I have to take a break for a few minutes, then walk a few more steps. My ankle gives out and I can't walk at all. Has anyone else ever experienced anything like this?

I am soooo sad, I have been on Tri-Levlin for 7 years and everything was great, as soon as I took the generic I developed terrible side effects and have been on 3 different pills that I hate! I wish that they still produced Tri Levlin

weight gain and enlarged heart

Could not get to sleep, then slept for 3 to 4 hours and was not rested. Diarrhea was constant and I didn't feel right. My body tells me when something is not good for me and I stopped taking it after 5 days.

Occassional Nausea (which usually passes quickly). If I take it and can not get to bed within 30 minutes-1 hr I get a little more naustead and occassionaly feel as though I might vomit. I have on about 3 occassions gotten so dizzy that I became pale and weak and my knees buckled. Once I came crashing down in the kitchen and the other 2 times were in the bathroom washing my face before bed within an hour of taking it. If I take it very late at night and don't sleep 8 hours I'm nauseated in the morning. I have had somewhat frequent headaches behind my eye and have constant headaches in general. I have had 2 migraines. I have had no numbness, swelling or actual fainting (though as I mentioned I came very close). I have only vomitted on 2 occassions while taking sinus medicine with requip. Overall, nothing too bad. I have been taking it for 3 years. Recently I started experiencing some vertigo that was a little more frequent. But it tends to come in spells. I am drowsy during the day by 3

I had the worst experience with this drug. I already have anxiety but I can usually semi manage it. Not even 5 minutes after this was inserted into my IV, I freaked out. I got extremely hot, sweating, shaky. I went into a full anxiety attack. Went to the bathroom to splash my face and catch my breath from under my mask, it didn't help. I asked my nurse if I could get some fresh air and even that did not feel like enough. Had to get a shot for anxiety cause I could not calm down. After the shot, I felt a lot better. I would not recommend this for anyone who has anxiety. I literally felt like the walls were closing in on me and I was gonna die.

will never take this again I stopped at day 4 and its been 2 day since I stopped and still feel drunk and high my head is spinningand can hardly walk and my body aches aweful I just dont feel like myself hope it passes cause this is horrible :(
