I've been hearing music, most often hymns, which are like hearing a band playing very far away. I know that no actual music is being played. I've had testing done for hearing loss and I'm within normal range. I'm not mentally ill, and I've had brain scans, EEG's and a lumbar puncture done. The neurologist that ordered the last two tests said she believed I had late on-set epilepsy and started me on a course of Trileptal prior to getting the results of the EEG. When the results came back with normal results, she wanted me to continue the medication or get a second opinion. This stuff isn't cheap, it hasn't even interrupted the "music" and I'm really tired of waiting for a diagnosis. I saw something about Musical Ear Syndrome and it sounds like my symptoms. Anyone out there with this problem, or knowledge about phantom music?
Thanks!
