In Reply to: Depakote and phasing out meds.....episodic posted by Jsprecco on September 13, 2001 at 21:55:45:
My husband's doc just switched him to depakote recently because the lithium/verapamil combo that had worked for years for him, wasn't anymore. Dan ended up with a very bad reaction to the depakote. Vomiting, severe stomach pains, mental fogginess. Now they are trying topamax...anyone have any info on that? They also just found an aneurysm from his MRI yesterday. Wondering if that has anything to do with his other meds not working anymore & increased number & severity of his headaches. We just found this out today & unfortunately know nothing about aneurysms. He is having an angioram next week. No idea what to expect...anyone have any info?
