    Hi Alyson32

    I've been on Sertraline for 5 weeks now and have been deaf in my left ear practically since I started taking them.

    I'm quite concerned about the length of time and I'm considering whether I should have my GP or Specsavers take a look to check if it could be just wax.

    I do know it is one of the side effects of taking this drug.
