anyone use topmax for diabetic neuropathy

Hi - The doctor also wants to give me topomax, which when I researched it, is used for migraine headaches. Anyone out there use topomax for neuropathy? Any success?

I don't use it for neuropathy, but I do use it for migraines. It also helps with insomnia and it helps with curbing hunger. I can't tell you if it'll help with neuropathy since I don't have that...though maybe that's why I don't have it? Also, most insurance companies have it on their highest tier since it's a Brand Name drug still. I get to pay $60 a month for it...yay me!

I also take it for Migraines, (and sometimes Imitrex) but I also suffer from occipital neuralgia in the back of my head and neck. It's not something I take on a daily basis so I can't offer you any opinion.
