Just so I make sure I'm reading it right, it's the two together that's probably causing it???

That's why I couldn't find anything on the topamax before, because I was just looking at it by itself. The weird thing is, I was taking it before and after my last surgery along with everything else (exept the cymbalta) and didn't have this. They say your body goes through a complete cellular change every 10 years or something though and you can react differently though, so maybe that's it.

Right now, it's not bad, so I'm going to see if it goes away, maybe it's just one of those side affects that goes away after a bit. If it starts to get bad again I'll contact my primary care physician to see if he can give me something else instead of the topamax.

BTW, the person the recomended Mark, do you know if he could find out if a 3rd Discectomy would remove me from being a candidate for ADR in the future?
