[QUOTE="Bandsaw, post: 732469, member: 9037"] LoveMoo, I am the wife of Bandsaw and he was sharing your health issues with me. I am a registered nurse. I too suffered with dizziness along with migraine headaches that would last for days. I started my road to a diagnosis with our family phys. no luck. On to ENTs, Neurologist and then Pain specialist. I was given most of the same meds you are taking. I felt that no one was listening to me and that all I was doing was taking more medications and adding more symptoms to my already dreadful problem. There were nights I would wake up with horrible headaches and I became unable to perform my daily duties. Many days I would close my office door and close my eyes to attempt to continue with the day. It was awful. It was only after experiencing suicidal thoughts as a side effect of the Topomax, that I knew that I was not getting better with all of the meds. It scared me and I was desperate to find the answer to all of the pain and medication side effects. I do not know that aspartame is your problem, but I would caution you concerning all of the meds. Be aware if you have thoughts that you would not normally have, that they may be the medicine and not your emotional state. I called the neurologist when this occurred and I was given an appointment in 30 days. Not what someone contemplating taking their own life needs to hear. Thanks to my dear husband and the information we received from a stranger, I am healthy and enjoying our nine grandchildren. Always take family with you to the appts. I would get confused as to who was telling me what. Not a time I enjoy remembering. I wish you luck and pray that you soon find the answers you need. [/QUOTE]
