p.s...........Poofkin.....forgot to add, small doses of valium (I take 2 mgs
twice a day) helps with that noise in your ear......valium has a calming
effect on the inner ear, something to do with affecting the area of the brain
that controls the inner ear or something like that. I am not a doc, but it
was explained in that way to me. Also was told that taking valium regularly
in such small doses was not addicting.
