Tinnitus caused by hearing loss... I agree people with ringing in their head will have that range of hearing *masked* but no matter what you do to amp up the hearing in that range there's no fixing damaged hearing when it's not damaged. That's where the potassium drugs would come into play to...

Lots of Debbie downers in here. In the medical world nothing is possible until it is. They will figure it out at some point. I understand having this trial fail really hit a nerve with a lot of people myself included I was hopeful but it is what it is and other things are in the works...

Just liked the T-Hub on facebook. If you ever do any ads, or videos, let me know I'd be more than happy to provide the music for it.

Friend of mine has Parkinson's disease, she just underwent a new procedure that has never been done before. This is amazing, and if it holds up, it will be a game changer. http://www.nbcwashington.com/video/#!/news/health/Parkinsons-Treatment-Showing-Incredible-Results/324011971 Makes you...

I've been out of lifting heavy for a few months due to my son being sick nonstop over winter, me being sick, and then the whole time thing. I can't wait to get back into it, but for now I stick with cardio. I mountain bike a lot, and tend to be very active over all. Half the battle is fought...

Maybe stupid is the wrong word, but it's something I've done as with most everyone else and in hindsight it causes stress that only makes things worse as a whole. This is hard to say, currently I'm dealing with a whole new T that I've never dealt with before, its super high pitch and can't...

So much to be taken from this line. From perfectly healthy people, to people with issues. I think everyone could use a little more living in the moment and less being worried about the future. I know I can. Retirement and making ends meet aside. Living in the moment is truly living...

Maybe something worth following for updates. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/otonomy-present-two-upcoming-investor-113000527.html

I stand corrected.

Plugging did not make it louder. It made you precive it as louder. Everyone on here most likely has a horror story or something they did that they regretted alright away. It's all good. ;)

For anyone thinking about plugging at the dentist. Next time you are eating make note of how loud your chewing is. Next. Plug your ears and chew, make note of how loud it is. Or try it now by simply letting your teeth come together. With and without ears plugged. Now think of a drill!

When I was at my peak, there's no way in hell that would work for me, the issue is tooth to bone, it will not go well with any type of headphones, even noise cancellation or plugs IMO. Try clapping your hands indoors, if you can't do that without holding back, you need more time to work...

Exposing yourself to sounds will help, understanding that the sounds you are being exposed to WILL NOT hurt your hearing is key, if you expose yourself to 90db of sound and mentally freak out because what if what if what if... you'll never get past it and it will also most likely cause your T...

Sorry to hear you had such a bad experience! What you need to do is work on desensitizing your hearing. I think everyone with T has at some point shut their ears away and kept ANY noise from them, at lot of people still do, what this does is cause your tolerance for sounds to lower and...
