How can you just make such an assumption and sell it as a fact, people may believe you! As far as I know, we have one statement on Reddit: "If supporting cells die, the epithelium is practically gone, and this would present as profound hearing loss." This is a statement of the Form "if A...

Yeah Nicccce! They are super fast.

This is exactly what happens to me, too. Just as you wrote, when I am about to loose consciousness and am aware of it, my tinnitus goes away to complete silence (but also all other sounds).

Hey guys, as this is different for everyone I thought, it may be interesting to see, how often Tinnitus Talk users perceive their tinnitus while asleep, and created a poll: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/poll-how-often-do-you-hear-your-tinnitus-in-your-dreams.27252/

In this thread https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/why-we-dont-hear-tinnitus-in-our-dreams-and-why-it-is-a-clue.5721/ I read that people often do not perceive their tinnitus while asleep. Within that thread, the discussion was controversial, so I thought maybe we can have a poll: How often do...

Yes, it very much sounds like Audion's phase 1/2 trial, because it is conducted in the UK and it uses a gamme secretase inhibitor. Later in the article they talk about frequencies FX-322 trial.

I think effifacy is referring to the diffusion of FX-322 into the cochlea

First: I didn't read about anyone from the industry saying that a cure is in near sight. When you are talking about reverting hearing loss, then audions trial is the best candidate for a treatment in 5 years, in my opinion, because they are already conducting a Phase I/II trial. I really believe...

For people with SSNHL who went to "profound" (>90db) AM-111 showed significant better improvement than placebo - 42.7db improvement VS 26.8db. This is so much better than having no medication at all...

Hi, I looked through the paper. As tinnitus is not a real problem, but hearing loss, I looked for effects related to hearing loss and I have found something. Another paper from 2014. I states that Koread Red Ginseng has an otoprotective effect. The paper was only cited 4 times since then, so...

As I think those treatments will not fix your hearing completely, ENTs will use a combined approach with regeneration and hearing aids. I think they are not "enemies".

I am very sure this is no full hearing assessment. I tested my hearing between standard frequencies and I noticed great differences for example between 4 khz and 4.25 khz. Maybe you should search for "gaps" in your hearing. Try this: 1. use a frequency generator program (for android: search for...

I didn't ask him for the name of the company, because I was there for a medicinal examination and time with him was short. I thought that the company can be found by searching for his name. Unfortunately I had no luck, now I regret not asking him. I will ask him, the next time I am there. His...

I believe things will speed up in the next years. I talked to a Scientist from the hearing research centre Tübingen in Germany on friday and he told me that his company will do human trials with regenerative inner ear medicine this summer and the corresponding medicament will be released soon...

I agree, there is for sure not enough information. But given that my finding about Minbo Shim using IGF-1 is correct and complete, it will not affect supporting cells. IGF-1 does not induce some kind of transformation of supporting cells into hair cells as far as i have understood. Here is the...
