Vertigo and sound in the head
For the headache, the Dr. prescribed me with Venlafaxine 75mg, later reduced to 36.50mg, because the meds didn't help to eradicate the headache, the Dr. ordered me to stop taking it, at the next day, I start to have kind of Vertigo and the sound of kind of ratchet in my head, the Dr. re-prescribed the same meds and the symptoms dissapeared, I stopped again and the symptoms back, the Dr. reduced the meds to 1 pill -25 mg for 14 days, after I stopped, the same symptoms back again, at this time I am desperate because I don't see how to stop this symptoms, any help or advice will be greatly appreciated , thanks

That happened to me for about a month after recovering from a fall with brain bleed and concussion and then for the last month it has gone away. It was not only music but other loud noises, like steam, crunching, etc.
Yes, I already suggested the meds addiction clinic to my Neurologist but still waiting for an answer, thanks
I have had intermittent vertigo and ringing in my head for years, but no doctor has ever tried to treat it or explain what's going on. I can't even turn my eyes to the side during an episode. The ringing is quite different from the tinitus that I have all the time.
Sure wish I could find out why it happens.

Have you tried Botox for the chronic headaches? Have the doctors considered this may actually be Migraine associated Vertigo?
@katcollins , yes, I unsuccessfully tried Botox and other injections, meds, I am actually taking Emgality shots but it's not working too.
Vertigo, sound in the head and acute depression started when I stopped taking Venlafaxine, restart the Venlafaxine and the symptoms stop but the headache continue, the Dr. translated this effects as Withdrawal but I am not sure it is.
they tried so many different meds and shots that I asked if He knows a good exorcist , just as a last recourse

1 Reaction@ce324 I’m so sorry you haven’t find relief. Something will eventually work. Have you tried vestibular PT and OT? I know the doctor says it’s from medication withdrawal but just in case it is not you could give it a go.
@katcollins I appreciate your reply, it's a very interesting good tip , I will consult with my Dr., thanks
