Lee, I am so glad that things worked out for yu.  There are times unfourtanely when we hit ouir lowest before we begin to rise up.  No it does not seem fair, but who said life was fair.  If they said that life was fair, they lied!  Keep it up, I also take Topamax, but I take it for migraines, and it works wonders.  It is my drug of choice for my migraines.  I was at the point of washing Goody Powders down with Pepsi's in order to rid myself of those headaches.  It worked, the only problem, I was soon going to have no stomach lining so along would come another problem.  Regardless Lee, I am happy for you take care, and God's speed.  sherry/smomdukesKiss

What an amazing accomplishment you have made in all aspects of your life. Losing roughly 1lb a day is amazing. You get the famous but trivial and unkown Laughing"OPRAH AWARD"Laughing. For losing so much wieght. No wonder your brain crashed. You were starving!

 

All joking aside this is a fantastic story of recovery. Thanks so much for sharing. It helps us all to see stories like this.

 

It would be nice to hear how the doctor helped you.

 

Thank you,
