I have been on Topamax a very long time. Too long.  Probably 15 years. I take 200 mg twice per day. Has anyone experienced muscle pain or weakness? I also, strangely enough got permanent nerve damage that no one can explain.....

    I am always fatigued and have a permanent muscle twitch in my eye. The specialist gives me a Botox injection at least once every 8 months to quiet it down. This in addition to horrible kidney and urinary pain.
