I havent been here in a while. Had all sorts of upheavals & diagnoses with major depressive disorder, agoraphobia, panic & generalised anxiety disorder.

My meds have been changing to hopefully treat & control those things, but I'm having a real problem with what I think may be epilepsy related symptoms, but not sure.

Any insight, advice and input is gratefully received.

I am hearing music in my left ear. Classical, opera, gregorian chant type stuff. When I was re-diagnosed with E I was given an auditory test and was told I have 30% loss of hearing on my right side.

This coupled with tinitus is driving me mad. I also speak different languages in my mind, and I can understand what I am saying. This is freaky. French, German, Italian, Greek and Gaelic. Only a few words at any given time, but it interlopes into my thoughts several times a day without warning.

Before I go to the GP to get referred to a new Neuro, I would appreciate reading about anyones experiences in this or a similar vein. If I can tell her "Hey others have had this", then it seems much less freaky.

I recently had my meds changed to Cymbalta (this was starting to happen before that though), and I was wondering if there could be something in Cymbalta that is interfering with my epilepsy meds?

I've also got a low grade permanent headache, not sure whether that is the cymbalta or the epilepsy either.

Will be grateful for all replies,

Thanks,
Rhiannon
