I am on topamax and always hear very faint music playing when everything else is quiet. It is so faint that I used to strain to figure out what song was playing, until I realized that it was in my head and just a side effect of the meds. I know it is annoying, but in the grand scheme of things, this is a lot easier to adjust to than most side effects and of course, the actual seizures. Ask your doc to be sure.

Hi Butterflygirl,
I was reading an older post, made by I think Nancy, to you and she mentioned 'clicking' noises as a common presentation of a sensory simple partial seizure (auditory). Check out your 'final verdict" thread.
Same thing with the far away voices I think (or maybe a type of complex partial, depending on how your consciousness is affected).
Hope I got that right.
Take care,
Maryanne :)
