      From daninflorida July 22

      Hey, thanks for the hug. My friend lives over an hour away so she's not on call to me. But we're getting together later this week. I took topamax for quite a while and it worked for me, but eventually lost its power. Did that shuttle go up? We don't pay much attention over here.

    • Hug

      From Stash July 19

      thanks, no I didn't lose my vision although I have been having visual disturbances, plus hyper sensitive hearing and sense of smell for quite some time now. I also become "paralysed" down the left hand side which is very unpleasant.
