I am getting headaches and they seem to be getting worse, though I have to add I just got my period and I am achey as hell and have not been sleeping very well! I am trying not to use the pain pills for the headaches, but tylenol not really cutting it. Especially right now with all the achiness and cramping!
I would like to address the comment from my last post. I know that weight loss is considered a side effect of Topomax but to me it would be a benefit, my docotors are even recommending it for weight loss so I know what I am doing, and I have gained 30lbs since I have been put on the steroids so I think its ok that I would want to lose weight, not to mention that i've been overweight all my life, if I can find something to help me lose weight it would be a benefit and a side effect I would gladly put up with! As for the tingly in the hands and feet, I've already dealt with that, it is temporary and if it comes back I know it will go away, but thatnks for your input. I've been on the medicine for awhile now and I know the side effects it just happens that weight loss is one that hasn't affected me yet, we are going to up the dosage to try to get it to!
I want to go buy a new mattress topper. Mine feels like it is all worn out already. I know I just bought it not to long ago, but I can't sleep at night, it is too lumpy, I've tried flipping it, doesn't work. I tried sleeping without it last night I woke up so achey! Mom is out for a walk right now, when she gets back maybe I'll go get a new mattress topper, a better one, one that will last longer. I'll have to put it on a credit card because I have no money, but if it works it will be worth it!
Well, my head is killing me, time to lie down.
