Y'all please help me. I worked out pretty hard Monday (spin) and I have been really wiped out the last few days. I take Topamax for my migraines but Monday one broke thru and I feel like it helped drain me. My head has been hurting still despite taking my medicine, my ears are constantly ringing, I have been seeing things (the other night I saw a red eyed monster on the road and almost crashed my car) and have felt quite nervous (my hands are shaking and heart rate is elevated), and yet my energy is really low. I feel like Mario in need of a mushroom. What can I do to shake this?

    Go to the Dr!! I used to take Topomax for my Chronic headaches and it literally made me crazy, like I thought I had bugs crawling under my skin crazy. Horrible drug.

    See a doctor. The forums are for weight loss advice. As soon as you add meds to the mix, we're all out of our league.

    I had migraines when I was a small child. I saw auras and everything. Missed a lot of school because of them. I don't get them as an adult, but I am on Topamax for bipolar disorder. I don't suffer from any side effects, but I do know that Topamax can mess with a person's head and body. You need to see your doctor as soon as possible so you can find another med that works for you without the side effects. Best of luck to you.

    Go o the doctor ASAP. I was on Topomax for my migraines, I had to be taken off of it. The side-effects are no joke.

    I didn't think it was the medicine since i have been on it for a few months now with really no side effects. Especially compared to Nortriptyline which was really freaking me out. That stuff had me feeling like ripping my skin off... I just thought that I should not be having migraines since I am taking medicine. This is the first I have experiences of any of this. I thought maybe I was just pushing too hard and not eating enough or the right things... Thank you all for your advice though.
