Topamax, Day 7...50 mg's today!
04 August 08 - 17:58
Okay, so today is day 1 of 50 mg (well, 1st purposeful 50mg day that is). I took my Topa at 7am and will be taking my night time dose tonight around 7 pm (each dose is 25 mg incase you too are taking Top an can't quite figure that out). So far not too bad. Had the tingly thing once or twice, but not bad. Felt really crappy and dizzy at lunch and feeling sort that way right now (almost 6 PM) but the rest of the day was pretty uneventful. I was able to concentrate at work, got my work done, could spell, talk, etc. Wasn't overly energetic, but hey, its a Monday, so what do you expect? I didn't wake up with keyboard impressions on my forehead so I consider that a plus.
I'm not really noticing much of an appetite decrease though, which is a bummer. I really would like that one side effect out of them all! I do stil have a headache though! I swear I think I have more on the Top than off!!!!! I will give it until my follow up (2 months) though so we'll see. I have been REALLY bad about drinking today so I bet that has a lot to do with that. Tomorrow I am going to try and really stay on top of the liquids and see how that helps or not with that.
Other that the Top the rest of my life rolls on. We are so sick of our jobs and where we are. Matt has put in his resume with the guys that come here for testing so we are really hoping to hear something positive back from them soon. They have been here since early July, so of course we couldn't hear anything while they are here, but they pack up and leave tomorrow so maybe in a few weeks we'll get some news. I am soooooooooooooooo ready to move.
Well, time to go rescue the 15 yr old from the 2 yr old. He's been totured long enough.
