Yesterday I had my dad pick me up some disposable earplugs from the store. When he brought them home I saw how big they were and and decided that I didn't want them in my ears. Well I went against that instinct and tried them anyway. I put them in and took them out after a few seconds. I made...

Shrooms helping visual snow and tinnitus is one thing, which I think is plausible. Them actually treating hearing loss, though? It sounds so far fetched, but I have faith that something like this is possible. The science is so pitiful on Psilocybin, hearing loss, and the way nerves heal in...

Natural Ways to Increase GABA

Thank you for this answer. I'm taking Lamictal to possibly help with my DPDR. I might add an SSRI soon because I've read that they can work in Synergy for things like DPDR. I know that many on this board aren't fans of SSRI's and I'm not either but it's kind of an emergency for me. The awful...

I guess I'm asking if it's possible for synaptoptathy to heal on its own, or if it's likely to stay the same or even get worse over time. It's so upsetting because my cognition has dropped off a cliff as soon as the noise happened. I can only blame it on my brain taking in less sound and that's...

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4842978/ Here's the link to the study about injecting NT3 into Mice's ears. It mentions that BDNF could work as well.

Almost two months ago I was exposed to a loud and powerful sound from very up close. Since then my hearing has changed drastically. The quality of audio in both ears has taken a severe drop. People speaking is hard for me to understand way too often, Music sounds much flatter, it's hard for me...

So the conference is over, I guess Pipeline spoke at it. Does anyone know a way to find some kind of recording or transcript of the conference? Does anyone know anything about what they presented?

Well I have an appointment with the ENT tomorrow. They said they're doing a normal audio test as well as an ABR. Should I be worried about the Noise with the ABR? Could it help detect hidden hearing loss? I hope I get a chance to consult with the audiologist first. I kinda just want steroids...

This is abrupt and I know others have already answered this somehwhat. But can anyone give their opinion on if I should try to get Prednisone tomorrow and who I should call to get it? I think my current plan is to see my ENT tomorrow, do the tests and talk to him. I'm just worried that they'll...

Yeah I'm not sure if I'm just imagining it but if there's ANY damage to my inner ear hair cells or synapses just from the noise two days ago then I NEED to know that. It just seems so hard to get any kind of info about hidden hearing loss from an ENT or audiologist. I'm honestly probably just...

Yeah I know there's no test for it. That's why I'm worried that that sound fried my synapses and I wouldn't know. I'm worried that my test will come up find and apparently I don't need Prednisone but I actually could use it does that make sense? I definitely have trouble understanding people...

I feel like I'm probably leaving out something important. It's just that I've had problems in my left ear for possibly a couple years now. Just very slight static and fullness feeling. It escalated when I got my visual snow syndrome. And then the past month and week it has gotten worse. It just...

I read your other post about Meniere's and anxiety. Would a shot give the exact same side effects as taking it orally? I really wish there was more information about this stuff. Cause yeah I know it doesn't even work all the time but I am pretty open to trying it if it has a good chance to help...

We were in the car and my friend answered the phone. The phone played over the car speakers you know? Well the guy on the other end was saying some stuff, and he talks pretty loudly and he ended up sort of shouting the word "basket" right as my friend was turning up the volume. I'm honestly...
