Remeron? Whooo boy, watch out for that one if you're having a weight problem. It's notorious for putting on weight and I didn't find it to be that good of an AD either, although some on this board found it helped very much. I wish you good luck with Topomax. My pdoc said that a patient of his lost 50 lbs without even trying. But do rethink Remeron with your doc. I once banged on the locked door of a food market until they let me in, bought a Dove ice cream bar and proceeded to snarl and slaver over it as I wolfed it down. I didn't even make it to the car before I consumed it - and this was on a cold February night! Needless to say, I gained 35 pounds in a few months that only now are coming off with dedicated exercise. Keep in touch, girl. I'm with you.
