Question: ...increased stomach acid as a side effect of Topamax?...

Answer:

Dear Patty:
I've not seen this problem with Topamax. It is easy to blame the medication, but perhaps your ulcer problem has re-appeared. It's time to see your doctor(s) to see what's causing this problem. Testing to see if your ulcers have returned may well be in order.
