I had a really painful experience last night and actually its quite painful for me to be here right now, I think its a side effect of the Topamax bit who could be certain.
I became really severly light sensitive at about 7'oclock
and I know that Eye issues are sometimes a complication reported with the Topimax but not photosensitivities with the eyes. I was in so much pain all i could do to releive it was to sit in the dark with my eyes closed. When my boyfriend met up with me at the hospital he said my pupils were totally dilated and my eyes were very red. They couldn't really determine a cause and sent me home with some numbing drops and told me to return if the pain continues today. I a m still in pain while looking at he computer screen so i am closing my eyes while typing oping that i am hitting alll of the correct keys .
I guess my visit with my doctor today will be the deciding factor if i stay on the topimax.
