Guest guest Posted October 29, 2001 Report Share Posted October 29, 2001 It has been a couple of weeks since I let this group know how is doing. She is now on her 8th week on the diet. She is down from 1275mg daily of Epival to 1000mg. She is down from 150mg of Topamax to 75mg. She drops another 25mg of Topamax on Thursday. She will be completely weaned off of Topamax in 2 more weeks. 's hair has stopped falling out after several months of it laying thick on her pillow in the morning. She no longer naps all afternoon every day. (in fact, she doesn't nap at all!) She no longer wets the bed every night. She has brighter eyes. Her reading has improved. She is improving in many other areas as well. As far as her seizures go....the first 2 weeks on her Topamax wean, she seizured the day after dropping the dose. I suppose the most incredible thing that has happenned to date was this past week. got a bad cold and was throwing up. Normally my daughter crashes and ends up in the hospital because of seizuring so much. This time, she had a normal kid cold. She seizured ONCE the whole week of her cold. I could just cry writing this to you. I never dreamed that I could ever have my daughter back. Still in awe on week 8 of this wonderful diet!!!!
