> > Daveman, I agree that everyone at some time has problems with getting rid of a particular tune in their head for several hours or over a span of a few days--I have experienced them myself over the years. And, they can be troublesome, but usually don't make your life miserable because they only last for a short time. But, when you have constant tunes that change continuously, 24 hrs. a day, seven days a week, over a span of eight months, then something is not right. And believe me, it gets very irritating, it is nothing to make light of, especially if you're living with it. I recently read about a farmer who had music playing in his head for 30 years straight and never told anyone because he was afraid of what people would think. This condition is more than just a few days of having one musical tune going over and over in your head. There may be a link between them, but there is certainly differences in severity.
Patti, please email me at louelsa@cs.com I have the same 24/7 condition and have 4 years of research that I can share with you. Lou pilder
