I was on Verapamil for two days, On the lowest dosage, the only thing it helped me accomplish was passing out. I of course was taken off the drug for obvious reasons.
I am now on Topamax and going to try that for a while. O2 is affective, Trex is Affective.

Keep a close eye on the side effects. I got very moody on Topamax and did not feel like myself.

Where do I take this pain of mine
I run but it stays right my side
So tear me open, pour me out
There's things inside that scream and shout
And the pain still hates me
So hold me, until it sleeps

OK, Been on it 4 3 weeks now and haven't had any ill affects, I have one more raise in mg on Friday, so I will keep an  out for it. Thanks.
I do have the issue of not eating, at all. I have had about a meal a day since I started, not that this is a bad thing.

One of the side effects is weight loss. This is due to loss of appetite. It is normal.

A small dosage of Topamax sent me on a very wild overnighter, with blindness in my left eye, my ch side, for 2 hours. The Doctor wouldn't return my phone calls.
I still have the rest of the bottle.
