hi every one .well let me tell you alittle about my self.i am a 25 year old migraine suffer.i started getting floaters and auras about 4 years ago .at the time my headaches wasnt really bad.up untill i had a baby 14 months ago.i had a spinal blck during a c-section where i was stuck 9 times in the back and it causes a csf leak.and a really bad headache.well cents then i have had bad auras at least 3 a week,with or with out a headache bad ringing in my right ear that comes and goes but is mostly there.dizzyspells.pounding pressure in my head when i stand to fast.i have to wear sunglasses every where i go because bright lights kill my eyes and cause auras.i cant stand noise.now since i had the baby my headaches are worse.mine are in my eyes.i have even got so dizzy i have threw up.i went so many doctors mostly ent's.well one said i had meineres disease.and others just didnt know.so much money wasted.and time.i was so feed up.they run a few test .they come back fine.i went to like 15 doctors.finally i went to a neuroligist.he said it was migraines.due to hormones.he started me on a low dose of topamax 15 mg.for one weekand then every week or two worked me up another 15mg now i am at 85 mg i have took this drug for 2 months.and the only sid affect so far for me is tingling in my feet every once in a while.and memory loss.which always comes back afew days after they stop uppering the dose.i can live with the side effects if it keepes helping.well let me tell you the auras are gone after two weeks of takeing topamax the ear ringing isint as bad but i dont think i am at the right dose yet.but i dont want to go up to much more.the dizziness is no where as bad as it use to be either.i have been able to return back to work.so thats a plus.also the floaters are gone.this past week the doctor also put me on pamelor to help with the migraines 20 mg a day plus i have anixity but it makes me sleepy.i do a follow up over the phone once a week to let the doctor know how it is working for me and it is.thank god for topamax.
