> I just started taking topomax (along with Wellbutrin XL) for mood swings. I have an excessive thirst that just won't quit! I am also light headed and bloated something fierce. Is this a side effect? I'm on 100 mg. I'm not having any problem sleeping, but I am sure having a problem getting things around my waistline.

I started taking Topamax a long time ago, so I don't remember all the original symptoms, but it sounds like you are experiencing some common side effects that should go away with time. Topamax did a good job at stabilizing my moods. (I'm off it now). I too took it with Wellbutrin XR. Give it at a while to work.
Goodluck,
Dm
