    My Trip to Bangkok: Stem Cell Treatment [Comments]

    @LJMD I'm sure this goes for others too but I for one am thankful for you going into detail about your treatment. This thread has a few posts where people have reported a positive effect on their T after having stem cell treatment and others who have reported no improvement. Some of those who...

    My Trip to Bangkok: Stem Cell Treatment [Comments]

    @LJMD do you know where exactly the local injections were administered to - was it a muscle, vein or artery? You say that you think these local injections gave you the most improvement within 24 hours. Did you have the local injections and intranasal stem cells on the same day? I ask because a...

    My Trip to Bangkok: Stem Cell Treatment [Comments]

    Totally agree. @friend said he/she had stem cell treatment in the US and that was about all was mentioned about the treatment. I don't think you can compare that to what SC21 offer and I also doubt he/she had the local peptide injection or laser/oxygen supportive treatments and these all play a...

    Study Suggests Serotonin May Worsen Tinnitus

    Weird how this study came out a few days after I cold turkey quit the starter dose (50mg) of sertraline because it was amplifying my tinnitus by insane levels. I've been off it for a couple of weeks now and my tinnitus seems to be back to baseline however my it screwed so much with my sleeping...

    Returning Hope — Stem Cell Treatment in Asia

    It's the clinic where ATEOS had his treatment at in Thailand (Stem Cells 21). Although my tinnitus is intrusive and I am desperate for reprieve. I contemplated treatment in Thailand but in the end decided against it and other clinics in less developed countries that mostly operate with impunity...

    Returning Hope — Stem Cell Treatment in Asia

    @Fabrikat yes I'm well aware that the improvement wasn't directly attributed to the treatment but in retrospect having had intrusive tinnitus which has not improved on its own in years, it would be naive to dismiss the link imo. In other news, the clinic in Thailand now offer intranasal stem...

    Retigabine (Trobalt, Potiga) — General Discussion

    Those who still have or take Trobalt and are experiencing Trobalt induced visual floaters, I found that soaking 20 or so Saffron strands in hot milk/tea for 5 minutes and then drinking and consuming all the Saffron got rid of floaters.

    Returning Hope — Stem Cell Treatment in Asia

    @DebInAustralia wow that's great! ATEOS reported his T improved over time after stem cell therapy so don't rule out further improvement just yet! How would you rate your T annoyance out of 10 before the therapy and now? Out of curiosity what was the cost of treatment?

    @bill 112 did you eventually fly out to Thailand for treatment or were you stringing us all along :)

    South Korean Clinic Treatment (Dr. Minbo Shim)

    @VRZ78 is there a source? @LadyDi I don't think that would have made a blot of difference. Injecting the cells directly into the eye probably had more to do with the blinding.

    South Korean Clinic Treatment (Dr. Minbo Shim)

    Shim doesn't really divulge on his treatment protocol which makes this a big nono for me. I think he uses embryonic stem cells from fetuses. I read an article a few weeks ago where a guy who sought stem cell treatment was injected with these cells in his spine at a foreign clinic and some time...

    Developing a Safe and Efficient Way to Transport Stem Cells Into the Inner Ear

    Given that most IV stem cells get stuck in your lungs (Google pulmonary first pass), I would imagine it's rare for tumours to form from them

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    They are both end up as the same thing. Prednisolone is easier on the liver and more readily absorbed according to doctor Google whereas our livers need to convert Prednisone to Prednisolone.

    South Korean Clinic Treatment (Dr. Minbo Shim)

    I am not too clued up on the whole process but from what I understand, there are 2 parts to the treatment. The first part is the injection through the eardrum for the growth factor and the second is the stem cells which are injected intravenously through a vein in your arm for example. The hope...

    Saffron Cure for Tinnitus?

    @RaZaH I have the same problem. After cessation, T returns back to full strength. I've started taking it again once in the morning with milk and it's important as with any treatment protocol, this needs to be taken like a medication on a daily basis and for a 4-8 week period at least...
