Angel,
This is AMAZING -- I have the same exact problem as you.
Last August I got off Prozac -- I did 20mg/day in Jan-Feb, then 10mg/day Mar-Apr, then 5mg/day May/June, then in July and August I went on and off of it (some days just a half of a 10mg pill; I know your not supposed to do that but I did)...then in August after being off for 2 weeks, for some reason I took a 20mg and the next day I fainted and have had Tinnitus every since then....it's very hard to deal with....it seems that ATIVAN is the only things that makes it better....I'm thinking of going to the Ear Institute and having Ladicain Local Injections and Intervenus Ladicain; a treatment which is supposed to have a 70% success rate.
Please let me know how you are doing -- It's been so hard to find someone with the same thing I'm going through, I think we need to stay in touch and see what works.
