So I have been experiencing an tremendous amount of pain and had to add back my secondary medication of Topamax. I suffer from many side effects from this medication. I have decided to take the plunge and try lowering my saturated fat to see if it helps enough to stop the Topamax or just help lower some of the pain. I do have a family and would like to make dinners that we can all eat and supplement theirs with side dishes. I was hoping we could share recipes or ideas. If anyone is interested, please join my new group. Thanks!
Hi Debbie, I take Topamax too and definately feel a bit yucky if I eat anything a bit too fatty, sugary etc. I’ve attached a link for you i found a while back, its nothing in-depth but it does have a list of good foods for pain relief i thought you might like it. The best thing about it is the list of fish, i definately eat alot more fish than meat these days. I keep it pinned to the fridge! I also used the NZ Neurological foundations dietry guidelines which I really felt just made me look at what I was eating and have helped me to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Hope your pain levels come down soon, best wishes, Susan.http://www.metabolismadvice.com/food_pain_management/
