I called my neuro about 5 years ago wanting to try Topomax over neurontin, as I knew one of the side effects was weight loss/appetite suppression. He told me it would not work for my nerve pain, guess my damage is just too great.

I took Topamax for migraines. It worked beautifully, but I also took Neurontin at that time, so it was all I could do to keep my eyes open! I had to give up the Topamax- have to priorotize your meds:rolleyes:
