Have you read his book, "Musicophilia"? It's fascinating. He talks about his experiences with people with various music "afflictions" ... sometimes due to brain damage of some sort, some just due to who they are and how their particular brains work. He does have people who hear music that isn't there. Some hear it quite strongly. One woman kept going to her window to look for the band (or some group; I read it a while back). <br /><br />I do encourage you to read his book. It might have some clues or answers.oboeinsight.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11737564805242417693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8680575510661941908.post-68081049694210862542010-08-17T17:15:14.017-04:002010-08-17T17:15:14.017-04:00Goodness - thank you Donna!

I will do some reading and also see what my neurologist says about that. My very best to you.Alexander Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09502570406095911380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8680575510661941908.post-32499898065944107612010-08-17T16:01:38.556-04:002010-08-17T16:01:38.556-04:00And here is an excerpt of another report, found at...And here is an excerpt of another report, found at, http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1528-1167.2006.00881.x/pdf :<br /><br />"Variable inclusion of hallucinations and illusions prob- ably accounts for the conflicting results in the literature on the lateralizing value of complex auditory auras (Pen- field and Perot, 1963). Verbal hallucinations seemed to lateralize for the dominant hemisphere in our series, and this would be coherent with lateralization of language au- ditory functions on the left side (Tervianemi and Hug- dahl, 2003). In addition, seizure origin was located on the dominant hemisphere in the one patient with musi- cal aura. A recent review of all cases of musical hal- lucinations concluded that the role of laterality was un- clear, emphasizing the difficulty of defining hemispheric dominance in music perception, as it depends on individ- ual musical experience and education (Evers and Ellger, 2004). Interestingly, two of our patients, both skilled mu- sicians, referred that a specific piece of music could pro- voke their auditory seizures (simple hallucinations). The fact that musicogenic seizures are more common in pa- tients well educated for music has already been reported (Wieser, 2004)."<br /><br />Ok, I'll stop already.<br /><br />Donna BAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8680575510661941908.post-47880049287408725982010-08-17T15:40:22.399-04:002010-08-17T15:40:22.399-04:00Have you read about seizures with auditory feature...Have you read about seizures with auditory features?

Lyndsay has the vision things once in awhile, but so far nothing like you describe today. Seems like a thing (for lack of a better word) between your ears and your brain... looping or on repeat? <br /><br />Donna BAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
