Dr. Shore's device is the one that has given me the most hope, but also the one that has frustrated me the most, because it feels like I have been hearing about it for decades and have been waiting impatiently for it, without seeing anything on the horizon. It's a great opportunity to have her...

Yes, I am looking for a cure, but no, I am not expecting a cure from this device (and never did). If it can lower my tinnitus, I would be more than happy. I just hope I will not describe this attenuation as a 2% decrease, that's all.

People are not doubting it works, they doubt how much it works. And until we get our hands on such a device, this question will remain unanswered.

Can't wait for trimodal neuromodulation that uses both nerves! :LOL:

Unless I misunderstood, Neuromod was founded and/or funded by millionaires who wanted to get rid of their tinnitus (someone correct me if I'm wrong). If that's the case, then I guess they won't settle until they find the holy grail for everyone (or at least for them).

Then anything is possible! Thanks.

I wish you had said 42, but at 39 I might still be eligible...

It would be interesting to know how old @kelpiemsp and @Clare B are. I'm almost 40, so when does the brain become "too old" to adapt? If you have to be 20 for it to work, it greatly reduces the window once again. There is still reason for hope of course, but those testimonials clearly are a...

It’s not about their lack of enthusiasm, it’s about the fact that the device didn’t do much to their tinnitus.

Fuck, didn’t need to hear that tonight... We need to stay positive, but that’s not easy...

I have mild hearing loss in one ear only. Does the “healthy” ear compensate for it? Is it important to only hear the signal or does it have to be specifically heard by both ears? So many questions...

I never quite understood this perception thing. In my case, some tones in the right ear can flare up, or disappear. When they do (disappear), even if I lock myself in a quiet room and try to carefully listen and look for them, they are not there, purely and simply. In other cases (most of the...

That’s good to know. Although if nothing happened to me within 12 weeks I think I would start to freak out.

Yes I remember, although one may think that the more tones you have the more complex your « neuronal situation » is. But yes I will stop overthinking, you are right. That’s my biggest issue in life lol. Thanks for the answer.

I'm not sure I do though. I have multiple tones in each ear, not a single tone. My tinnitus can change from mild to high (although it's been high for a few months now), and it has some somatic properties (when I clench my jaw, or yawn, it makes a part of it louder, but not all). Would that comply?
