    :'( :'(

    After feeling better for 3 weeks, my aura fullness came back! My Doctor took me off Valtrex (3000 mg/day since February) and I was prescribed famvir to take 500mg for a week and switch to 250 mg twice a week. I've been taking the 250mg/day for the past 3 weeks and all of sudden, last week the aural fullness came back and won't away!!

    I feel like my head is going to explode for the past 4 days with loud high pitch tinnitus.

    Have anyone experiencing ups and downs after taking antiviral for a few months?

    I feel so depressed thinking that I'll just have to deal with living with aural fullness for the rest of my life :'(

    Oops I meant I was taking famvir 500mg 3 times a day for 1 week and switched to 250mg twice a day - doctor's order!

    Your doctor is an idiot. Get another doctor to get you back on Valtrex at the proper dose.
