    Electrical Stimulation of the Cochlea for Treatment of Chronic Disabling Tinnitus

    You all are referencing the work of Dr. Matthew Carlson, with whom I have spoken on a few occasions. Net, net: Dr. Carlson is in Phase 2 trials this year with about 12 people. He then wants to do a third trial at several locations in the USA, including military bases due to the huge veteran...

    Hearing Aids

    Hey Bob, Sorry for the late post. I have had Signia Go with notched technology for a year and it hasn't helped my tinnitus at all. In fact, my tinnitus has gotten worse, which I attribute to anxiety and an inability to get used to these intensely annoying noises. What I have liked about the...

    Episode 20: The Man Who Donated a Million Dollars to Tinnitus Research

    In light of OTO-313 not planning out (and that path now possibly in doubt), I hope this path can somehow get expedited.

    Frequency Therapeutics — Hearing Loss Regeneration

    Does anyone know if there is an age limit for the potential efficacy of these treatments? I'll be 60 this year, and I keep being told that hearing loss (and tinnitus) is age-related. By the time this product actually is available, commercially, I could be pushing 65. Is that too late???

    How to Cope with the Unknown — Never Knowing How Your Tinnitus Is Tomorrow

    Hi Danielle, I hope you are doing well. My tinnitus has been quite bothersome, lately, especially since my ears have become very full on both sides. It could be allergies, but a tympanogram found that there is no fluid in my ears and the pressure is normal, so I wonder. I have read that...

    Idiot Move: Blasted Myself with Soundbar at Best Buy

    Thank you, my friend, for a really inspiring and heart-felt post with some great ideas. I really like the idea of using one word to describe each day on the calendar. I think I will start doing that, myself. Like you, I have good days and bad days. The problem, for me, is that even the good...

    Frequency Therapeutics — FX-345

    That's the one! The question is whether to go through with it, if selected. Is FX-345 so much better that it merits waiting for those trials?? And do we think this will help tinnitus, as well? I only have moderate hearing loss...

    Idiot Move: Blasted Myself with Soundbar at Best Buy

    You make a good point, of course. I'm just really struggling, right now, and I'm getting very anxious and depressed about my condition. I guess I just have a hard time seeing myself 'habituate" to this monster...

    Frequency Therapeutics — FX-345

    I'm not sure what to do, at this point. It takes up to eight weeks to determine eligibility, so I will see if they even accept me...
