Musical Hallucinations

[Diana190]

Dear Doctor,

Please help me. Since October 2008 I have musical hallucinations. At that time they weren't on a daily basis, but since mid-November it"s every day since I wake up, when I go out, follows me everywhere. They don't come from my brain, they're everywhere I am. These hallucinations persent themselves as church bells banging and banging violently together. It is awful, because sometimes become very loud, and they also follow me to bed at night and don't let me sleep.
I live in Canada where this kind of hallucination is considered very rare. I have an appointment with a neurologist on
Marcj 10, THAT IS TWO MONTHS FROM NOW ! They are driving me crazy !
I have a psychiatrist who follows me, ad I asked hime for help. He said he could not help me because that type of hallucination is very rare, and he scheduled me an appointment with a neurologist specialized in musical hallucinations.
I live in Canada, where the weather is freezing. I asked my psyciatrist if I could have Lyme Disease, and he said tthat Lyme Disease is an infection produced by a deer tick, in places with warm weathers.
What is wrong with me ....(I don't know where the question mark is)
Please, help me !
Thank you so much !
Diana

Hi,

Thanks for writing in.
It is a very unusual symptom and it is difficult to give a straightforward answer.
It is important to note that these are very rare hallucinations. Some correlation has been worked out between musical hallucinations and OCD, Major depressive disorder, panic attacks and shizoaffective disorder.
It is good that you will be undergoing a neurological exam as nothing can be said for sure without a complete clinical exam.
Good luck!
