How long have you had this buzzing? Odd side effects like that do happen when changing dose or switching medications and although they can be quite frightening, do pass in time (some slower than others, when I changed medication I had some odd side effects for about 7 days). If it persists for any length of time then maybe pop back and see your GP. I don't think however you have done anything to your brain, nor are you stuck with this forever. I'm sure it will sort itself out as your body settles on the medication.
