I have an appointment with an audiologist next week to see if the Signia Silk in-ear device with a notch program can provide relief for the tinnitus in my right ear at 8 kHz. It jumped from level 2 to level 5 after a left shoulder steroid injection last June. I also found the same hearing aid...

I just had a follow-up audiogram after my ENT requested it. By the way, I’ve been using the Lenire system for four months now. At my second follow-up session, I requested to switch the track from #1 to #6. Why the FDA hasn’t approved all the tracks remains a mystery. Track #1 combines noise...

I am considering getting Lyric hearing aids. I have been using Lenire for two months, twice daily, but I have not yet observed a reduction in the tinnitus level in my right ear. It spiked to level 5 back in June 2024 after I received a steroid injection in my left shoulder. Before that, I was...

I'm so glad I researched Quietum Plus on Tinnitus Talk as I was about to order 3 bottles. Shame on them for this scam!

Day 15 of Lenire treatments. 8 kHz T levels mostly unchanged 2L and 5R. Was told this can take 12 weeks to hear improvement.

I just received my Lenire device on Friday, costing $5,500 USD out the door. I'm currently on my 6th treatment (2x per day) as I type this. Before this, I tried 15 sessions of HBOT, 25 hours of LLLT, and 30 days of steroids. My tinnitus levels are 2 in the left ear and 5 in the right. Over the...

Completed 15 rounds of HBOT but no improvement of Level 5T in right ear. LLLT Did not help. Now on 4th day of Lenire unit.

Starting 10 rounds of HB0x treatments. ENT says do not expect much until the 5th. Ordered LLLT unit.

Wow, thank you so much for the detailed response. I wonder how long it took to get the unit shipped to you. I am in the USA. California, to be more precise. Thanks!

I was considering getting the emLas-520, but I noticed they offer three versions: emLas-520 A, B, and C, each with different wavelengths. From what I understand, the typical treatment involves using A on day one, B on day two, and C on day three, then repeating the cycle. There are no LLLT...

Has anyone tried using a suitable wavelength LED light engine/module with natural dispersion or a lens to form the desired beam? These can get rather thermally warm.

Early this week, my right ear felt like it had been switched off. Thinking it would go away, I waited a day. It didn't. It makes the tinnitus 5X louder! This morning, I did an Urgent Care visit. The doctor did basic checks, and I got a same-day ENT appt. The ENT said he needed to see how...

Tuesday, my right ear felt like it had been switched off. 2nd hearing test confirmed 20-30 dB loss. ENT Time!

Had ABR test Friday. Moderate to loud pulses each side. Funny, Tech said sleep for an hour! HA
