  I started the topamax about a month ago as I was instructed to, and I actually am feeling much better than I was on the acetazolomide all things considered. HOWEVER. I went from using the bathroom regularly1-2 times a day to 1-2 times this whole month. Now, I don't feel constipated, no pain, no gas. I feel no urge to go either.  Not ever. This is strange to me. Doctor says normal Sx...fine. Id like to know if anyone has dealt with this and how they *hopefully made it better.

  I saw my neurologist on Friday. He checked my eyes, then had me rattle off my symptoms. I let him know that I think the diamox is starting to give me headaches (on 500mg sequels qd) and that they resemble the headache I have after a lp; meaning that they feel like they may be low pressure headaches. I also mentioned that these headaches are happening most often after I've been stuck at my desk staring at a computer for 9 hours, are associated with neck pain, occur after I've picked my son up...

  Does anyone else experience this? I get a (worse) headache within 30 minutes of eating lunch every single day. I've tried foods that don't need to be chewed, because I thought maybe it could have something to do with chewing my food. I've tried different kinds of food, it doesn't matter. I've tried everything. It always happens.
