    Already 6 Hours Tinnitus Free with CBD Oil

    I have been trying CBD oil that has a percentage of THC in it. I think that together with determined focus on something other than t has helped me a great deal. The only thing is some mornings after taking it I wake up stoned! So if you don't do well being stoned try get the pure CBD non-THC...

    MicroTransponder: Latest News and Research

    I listened to the video of the ex-infantryman who has had the procedure done... his t reduced by half after a couple of months of therapy using the device. He says his t is way less bothersome and "it literally has given me my life back" ....music to my ears. What any chronic t sufferer wants to...

    If Your Tinnitus Vanished, How Would Your Life Change?

    I would be a changed man. I would sleep again and have more energy. I would not wake up every day with fear and depression. The constant worry of how am I going to survive would be a thing of the past. What does my future hold? A life like this is not a life worth living. Negativity would be...

    How Many of You Gave Up on Your Dreams Because of Tinnitus or Hyperacusis?

    My life is ruined from T. Got it left ear when I was 29. Habituated a year and a half later. Never bothered me up until 43. One night out with loud music (my own stupidity) and whammo - both ears 7/10, ringing, hissing. I too was a part-time muso with aspirations to play more, record more...

    Have done 2 days of trobalt starting at 150mg. Then 2 days @ 200mg. Then today started 2 days @ 250mg. This might be a bit quick... The first pill really whacked me. The high and insight was amazing (happy up) and harrowing (sad down) at the same time. T dropped from a 7 to a 2 left ear and...
