OCD

I want to thank you again for your quick responce to my last question! A brief re-cap....I have a histroy of partial seizures with an EEG that shows spikes coming from the left parietal lobe. I've been seizure free since I was 20 (I'm 27 now). I have OCD and am be treating successfully with Prozac (50mg) and therapy. Over the past couple of months I've been experiencing tinging, pins and needles and some numbness around my mouth and in my right hand. I also experience mild tinnitus. My psychiatrist said that she thought these symptoms are due to anxiety. I don't FEEL anxious when I'm having them...I've been feeling pretty good mental health wise. I don't want her to think that I'm being over-concerned about my health but my history of seizures is real and I don't want to loose drivign privledes. Should I see a primary care physician? Can the Prozac contribute to symptoms of numbness and tinnitus? If you can offer any suggestions about how to procede I would appreciate it.

If you had spikes in the left parietal lobe, then those symptoms on your right side could come from there, so see a neurologist and have another eeg.
