Thanks for posting that. It is interesting.

I know perhaps this has all ready been discussed on TT, but I have just read this and thought it might be useful to post it here. A few weeks after I first got tinnitus, I spoke to a hospital doctor and told her that it felt like a kind of 'auditory' epilepsy, but I think she misunderstood...

Whoops didn't mean to insert it twice

@I who love music Thanks for the update, it's great to hear that your technique continues to be successful and improving.

This is very interesting. If the brain is able to consciously detect tinnitus, maybe it can eventually reverse and learn to 'not detect' it. Let's hope every one of us can achieve this. Best wishes everyone.

I've tried the hearing tests posted on YouTube, I can hear up to 14 KHz. 15 KHz with the volume increased, 16 and 17 KHz I could hear a distorted sort of buzz. I noticed on one test, that advises you to plug each ear to listen with both the right and left ear independently, that my left ear...

@PhilB I'm just looking at the Website now Phil.

@PhilB How do I go about it Phil?

@PhilB Good luck with the trial Phil, I hope it's successful. I'm in Manchester UK too.

Hi, I'm from Lancashire UK too. I had an MRI scan of the IAM (internal auditory meatus - i.e. ears on the inside) last August on the NHS. I must have got myself stressed about it because my tinnitus was spiking loud on the day. I do not know how old the scanner was, but I think it was an...

I must add, one of the audiograms was carried out at a private tinnitus clinic (hearing test up to 8khz). They also actually tried to determine the frequency of my tinnitus, for which they had the equipment, and told me my tinnitus was about 10 kHz, although I said I could hear two different...

I have had three hearing tests, including a bone conduction test. They were all up to 8 kHz and I was informed each time that my hearing was within the normal range and that I did not need a hearing aid. I asked why the higher frequencies were not tested and was told that equipment to do this...
