Hi, I developed hypoglycemia earlier this year. Before I found out how to get some relief from the anxiety and low moods by changing my diet (removing refined sugars like colas, white bread etc), I went on Lofepramine which after 5 weeks really was beginning to help. Unfortunately my ears starting ringing and this became such a problem that I asked my doctor to come off the meds. I spent a week at half dose and then stopped for a week. Then my doctor suggested I try another antidepressant but it didn't suit me either. I am trying st John's Wort now.

My problem now really is that after 3 weeks after stopping the Lofepramine my ears still ring and it is beginning to add extra stress thinking that maybe its permenant? It has improved a bit but its still bothering me. Just want it to be quiet again at night to sleep. my sleep also seems disturbed too, I often wake after a few hours feeling panicky, then can't get back to sleep. .I tried looking on the internet but didn't find any evidence of permenant problems like this. Maybe I missed something. Is it just a case of giving it more time to leave my system?

I feel upset because peace and quiet is so important to me.

Wondering if any one knows about this? Thank you for any advice, lots of love Vicki x
