Short-term Memory Loss and Tinnitus
Wellbutrin worked well (which is why I took it for so long) for my PMS-type depression but caused me to lose the ability to hold short-term memories and recall names, words, ideas that I have to describe now because I can't recall the word (ie: the thing on your wrist that tells time because I can't think of "watch".) ... more »
Wellbutrin worked well (which is why I took it for so long) for my PMS-type depression but caused me to lose the ability to hold short-term memories and recall names, words, ideas that I have to describe now because I can't recall the word (ie: the thing on your wrist that tells time because I can't think of "watch".)
I'm also suffering from tinnitus that developed AFTER I stopped taking Wellbutrin generic. I was having a "stuffy" feeling in my ears like there was fluid in them...I read about the hearing and memory problems in online forums and stopped the drug. Now I have tinnitus that sounds like I had a firecracker or bomb go off near me.
Interestingly, my cholesterol dropped right after I stopped taking it so now I wonder if Wellbutrin had more to do with my metabolic syndrome and what else it's effected.
Why do we do this to ourselves...we're all guinea pigs?
