I've had e-mails from a lot of you this past week or two wondering why I haven't been posting much. Well it's cause I feel like the devil and haven't really felt like it. But I have been visiting and reading all the bull going on.
Anthony, dear, we're all very glad you found a cure for your headaches and wish you continued success. I'm really sorry that you don't feel at home on our board and hope you find a place where you will feel at home soon.
I just wanted to let you all know that I do appreciate your concern and that I am ok, just feeling poorly right now. Started on Topamax last Friday and hope (hope hope hope) this will be the ONE!
Apparently everyone who's gone on Topamax is being put on different dosages. Joe Stone said he started on 25mg and is now on 50mg and is pretty well out of his cycle. Drummer is on 25mg this week and going to 50 next week and his HAs have increased. I was started on 50mg and go to 100mg next week and feel like I've been hit by a Mac truck. Drummer said his doc warned him about a zombie-like feeling for about a month, but mine forgot to tell me that part.
You guys are just going to have to stay with me until I come out of my zombie trance and get back to some sort of normalcy. I'll try to post occassionally to let you know I'm still among the living, but don't worry if I don't answer like I normally do. I just can't think right now.
But I AM watching all of you so PLAY NICE! I'm just too tired to fuss at ya'll right now.
