Under 130lbs? topa? exercise? supps? PLEASE HELP
Hey Keke: I'm not a "smaller girl" but took Topa for 6 months and am trying this month off it. I didn't feel tired or queasy on Topa, but did have the tingling in my hands (and sometimes feet) and trouble wordfinding, which eventually wore off. I found each time I upped the dose initially the tingly's reappeared for a week or so. I ended up @ 25mg in the AM and 50 mg at 5-6 PM.
I just wanted to say that the suggested Topa doses in the original MWO book went up to 300 mg, but from my reading on the boards lots of folks settle in at 50 - 125 or so - and I think the lower doses are suggested now.
So that doesn't exactly answer your question, except to say I found the side effects wore off. Hope others will respond (You might post in General too). Let us know what you decide to do.

ASF, Thanks for letting me know most settled at a lower dose (I'm med phobic). LVT, yes I think I'll post elsewhere - its just that when I do my tapes, long term moderation is where I imagine myself. lol keke
p.s. sorry modders for taking up this space, I was feeling sorry for myself. Tolerated topa well yesterday and the universe answered the question about not throwing up in exercise class. I can't go to class for a while as I'm on the injured list. I will be walking, reading posts, and meditating on this drinking problem. Got to smile at that one. Love Living. kekeComment
