Arseny, Its been quite the ride handling my condition over the years. I can tell you that you have a lot of chance for recovery within a few weeks or months if you take care of your ears now. I've had spikes like this happen too in the past, and some of them lasted 6 weeks to go down (not from...

For ex. 120Db peak at 1 meter(about 3 feet) is about 114 at 2 meters (about 6 feet). But you're in a very confined space, room. So not much attenuation there... the further away from the ear the better of course, as like with speakers vs headphones.... The 120Db peak is not constant off course...

MPP lured me in too ... But what with the hate against Turkish Radio and Television. President Erdogan better not read this!

Hey @Marc22, I read your story about your bad housing move and wanted to reply a few months ago. Severe burnout has made me so tired the last months and i'm not able to work for a while and out of my normal doing, i couldn't find the energy to post ... And i'm in a pretty bad T setback now...

Some youngsters call them DubStep machines. If they only had volume control ... Sound level will vary from manufacturer, bore type: open or closed bore. Coil field strength (0.75- 1.5 or 3tesla) and scan duration and sound sequence types may vary from the type of scan: brain, torso, spine...

Thx @Jack Straw. I already had the CT scan today. Less waiting time for them and i know like there's 99% chance my head -skull-brain will be fine. I had some bad T spikes in 2012 and the MRI then showed out ok. But it spiked my T for a while (i geuss a week or 2), even wearing -30DB protection...

@Arseny I feel bad this had to happen to you! Your posts are so well written and nicely detailed, asking for the right things to do, seek out the help you need ... And then this happens! It makes me very sad, and a bit angry MRI operators don't seem to know the sound risks for us with pre...

Here's a good read about the so called reactive tinnitus wich is a description of symptoms experienced by 'us' poor souls (In my opinion) http://hearinglosshelp.com/blog/reactive-tinnitus/ It gets real interesting from the yellow marked part, if you scroll down a bit ... I can agree with...

How about a cheap CD - Blu-ay player with USB support? Feeding that into a Bose companion set of small speakers? Price would be about 200€ if you find a 100€ cheap Blu-ray player. It doesn't need to meet all modern cinema audio specs. If it plays .wav and mp3 and .mp4 and most common audio...

You found this link? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11169836 I had a minor spike from an MRI when my Tinittus was very mild and about 3 months in, i had hardly any Hyperacusis then. T spike went down after a few days luckely. I wore plugs and the headphones i got. They were playing the...

@Bart. Thx. I wasn't planning on going. I knew the results from Antwerp for years now due to online investigation.

They state 40% success rate at their Facebook page. So that seems fair in informing people before they dish out their cash. 3x the price might be the 'top doctor' premium... or to pay for that villa.

Just the staff it seems, and the location. Antwerp has a large hospital connected. Ghent has now more or less original starter staff of the old Brain clinic in Antwerp. When Dr De Ridder left for NZ he supervised the Antwerp part over the internet I guess. Now it's probably running on its own...

That was about 5 years ago according to a Dutch hearing forum. Seems he might move again. Their new clinic is just about in my back yard in a big renovated landhouse/villa. It's a 5 minute walk from the central station in Ghent. Ghent - Brussels airport is about 30 minutes by train (if you are...

Maybe for both? That's what i'm gettin out off this ;) How are you going to take care of the world or others if you don't take care of yourself? @fishbone.. quite the story. I agree with an earlyer poster ... if there's any form of karma, it'll come round for you. (i hope it's a nice woman for...
