Erin- Thanks for the tip. I Have noticed a serious hydration problem with Topomax. I already drink lots of water. Neurologist also told me to drink extra. Can't seem to drink enough, though. Seems to go right through me. I might try to add more gatorade to the mix. The fruit flavored ones taste bad but the Powerade lemon/lime isn't too bad. I would love to get out to exercise a little bit, not to lose the weight now but just to finally get out now that I'm feeling better and to relieve stress but there just doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day. Especially since lack of sleep is one of my biggest triggers for my seizures. Hope your next appt goes okay. Kelly
