    After Tinnitus, I Started to Get Neck Pain, Numbness, Flashes of Light, Brain Fog — Losing My Mind

    I would get an MRI first. Maybe it is not your tinnitus causing these things but something else causing all of your problems. Take care and let us know how it goes.

    Lidocaine Neck Patch Silences Ear Ringing Agony of Tinnitus (DailyMail / March 30, 2019)

    Very bizarre to see that something so simple had such an effect. Hope they will release more info. At least if it works maybe it can open doors to more research in the pathway of relief. Seems too simple and random to be true :)

    Lecture ("Tinnitus: Ear or Brain") by Dirk De Ridder in Belgium on April 22, 2019

    He has been around for a long time in tinnitus research. I would ask him what latest discovery in the last few years changed things he thought were true before. I am a bit afraid he is one of the old timers that cannot let go of his own ideas. Maybe they will be true, but I rather learn what...

    MDMA (a Component of Ecstacy) Potential for the Treatment of Tinnitus

    I suspect they don't. They work on serotonin receptors. However it has been proposed that over use of psychedelics can cause tinnitus. Most likely DMT. I was microdosing shrooms for the last 2 weeks. No significant change yet. Also LSD did not bring any change after 3 weeks of microdosing -...

    MDMA (a Component of Ecstacy) Potential for the Treatment of Tinnitus

    Hey buddy, I would really be careful with Kratom use. It is highly addictive... Honestly no wonder you like to use it, because it is just replacing one high with another. It is known to give people tinnitus and that has nothing to do with what caused it. It is just plain brain chemistry. I used...

    MDMA (a Component of Ecstacy) Potential for the Treatment of Tinnitus

    MDMA silences tinnitus for me completely for the duration of the experience. Blissful silence. Another drug called Kratom intensifies it and can create longterm spikes. It even has been the cause of tinnitus in some people... NEVER try it!

    Moderate Alcohol Consumption Has Protective Effect on Hearing

    I feel it has to do with GABA pathways. When I took Trobalt it also influences the GABA and gives a mellowed and relaxed view on life. You have more trust and confidence things are ok. Similar to Alcohol. So these pathways influence emotional responding and stress and we all know these are...

    P309 Tinnitus rTMS Treatment Guided by Local Synchronicity of the Resting State fMRI

    It is not so loud. Just a 'clac' sound, like a little hammer hit a nail. And that's how it feels too. A little hammer hitting your brain.

    Otonomy OTO-311 Phase II Clinical Trial for Tinnitus

    You have to apply to test something.. if it works early stage it might work for all, not other way around. It's a bureaucratic thing.
