It appears that this clinical trial builds on previous studies they’ve conducted involving an implant and electrical stimulation. I did a search on Google Scholar under the name Kelly Assouly, and there are quite a few studies. One published in 2024 showed particularly good results! So, this...

Thank you for following up on this! I also emailed who I believe is the author, though I haven’t received a response yet. I think the person’s name is Eser Sendesen? Would you mind sharing who you emailed? Thank you!

From what I understand, I have a single notch of hearing loss at 45 dB in my left ear, specifically at 6000 Hz, with no loss in other areas. I suspect this is the source of my tinnitus, so I’m curious if this could help me!

What is Lumomed therapy? It sounds promising? I have recent noise-induced (concert) tinnitus as well, with just mild hearing loss.

This is really interesting! It suggests that sound enrichment can be effective for people who have tinnitus specifically induced by hearing loss (like me). So, my next question is: how do I try it? How does someone go about obtaining the custom sounds needed for listening?

Hi @Furetto, I hope you're doing well! I've been trying this technique, and in the beginning, it felt like I was repeating the phrase to myself every 10 seconds. I kept doing that for about 3–4 days, even writing it down in my phone's notes app. After that, I started forgetting to do it, but...

Thank you for your answer! I have a small JBL Bluetooth speaker, I'll try that tonight!

Hi @Michael Leigh, I hope you've been well! I have a question I'd like to ask if you don't mind. I have noise-induced tinnitus and a bit of hearing loss, both in my left ear only. I'm wondering about nighttime sound enrichment. I've found that cricket sounds and violet noise work well for me...

I don’t think it really helped. I only had one intratympanic injection, and it was done without any numbing agent, so the Dexamethasone went directly through my eardrum. It was quite uncomfortable, almost worse than the tinnitus itself, especially with the fullness and crackling that lasted for...

The steroid injections didn’t help me, unfortunately.

Thank you for your message—I needed some positivity today! I’m in week 7 after attending a very loud concert, and I’m praying that my tinnitus will improve over time, or at least that I’ll be able to cope with it better. I started CBT last Friday and am hoping it helps. I’m also wondering if...

In Massachusetts, we are voting this November on whether to make Psilocybin legal! However, I'm too scared to try it. Like with marijuana, I suspect it would freak me out.

I've been playing the video you posted above, and it's been helping me sleep a bit better! I do have some mild high-frequency hearing loss in my left ear, so it's a bit harder to hear the cricket sounds in that ear. I guess they say that for sound therapy to work, we actually need to be able to...

Thank you so much, @Furetto! Your positivity and words of encouragement are truly helpful, and we definitely need more of that around here. I read about your situation and feel like our tinnitus sounds might be similar. There are times when I can't even tell if I can hear it—usually after 2-3...

Hi @Michael Leigh, I’ve been reading through your posts and have found them incredibly helpful and informative, so first of all—thank you for sharing your insights! I was wondering if I could message you directly, but since I’m new here, I’m not sure how to do that. I’ve been in a state of...
