Hi all,
Started topamax couple of weeks back, had the face tingeling when I reached 50 mg a day (the dosage I currently take) for about two days than it was gone and besides that I just felt different but couldn't tell what was it and now I know.
Although I can imagine a verbal conversasion easaily I can't imagine anything visually, it takes alot of effort to succeedd and when I do the image dissapeares after couple of seconds.
I can't say I became stupid since I work with computers and can still function and figure out what to do at work, I can also hold a conversasion without too much problems of not finding the right word etc but this thing is just messed up, I feel like a budha monk, not a single image would cross my mind, a memory I would try to remember would be weak instead of vivid and would instantly vanish but a verbal conversasion of thoughts in my head, peace of cake. Its like the brain fog people talk about but only with pictures.
Any Ideas or similar experiences?
Topamax does help and although not as efficient as keppra at this stage, it doesn't have many side effects except couple of word missfindings and this problem. I'm planing to study biotechnology technician and I'm scared that lakc of imagination would scrue me over in all the biology and chimisty courses.
