45% reduction is good for any kind of approach. I am not aware of invasive approaches such as injections having good effects on tinnitus, except for the one in South Korea, but I believe only few people went there.

When you are having a hot pepper you do not think about tinnitus :) It should work in a very similar way. I am not completely sure, because the electrical signal might be processed in a different way. Either way, there are probably tongue stimulators already available for sale somewhere, or can...

This is not anything new. It consists of two old things if I am not wrong. Sound masking and electrical stimulation of the trigeminal nerve (V3 nerve exactly). I believe most people use some sounds to mask their tinnitus. Electrical stimulation of trigeminal nerve is sometimes already used for...

Here is audiometry test, it is noticable there is a reduction around 250hz, and the MRI noise should be a low frequncy noise of 50-1000 hz so it is possible there is a slight hearing reduction in this area. But I did check using online audiometry testers and found out that my hearing on 250 Hz...

A doctor recommended me to do an MRI scan of brain for neuropathic pain. I possibly made mistake so I done a 1.5 T scan on GE machine without silent scan and I think it was a bit louder than Toshiba Vantage 1.5 T (maybe around 5-10 db or so) on which I did the former MRI last year. Before I had...

I don't have vascular conflicts as ẃell on MRI. The same problem and cause as you, and similar timing as well. questions: Does it help you when you rinse you mouth with a lot of toothpaste, or alchololic drints untill it starts to numb. this is something that helps me, but i need to repeat that...

Because this increases and could possibly create signal in peripherial nerves and this could be T cause. but the drug probably has a lot of side effects i have found so it should'b be ued.

I have neuropathic pain in trigeminal nerve. @Red. Where do you have the pain? Anything worked?

Does anyone with Tinnitus have neuropathic pain as well? For me, a month after tinnitus had developed (noise exposure), I started to have (slight - and it then has incresed) possibly "Neuropathic Pain" so I think that these two things migh be connected if not the same type of disorder. Maybe...

No impact for me in T as well - except for possible neuropathic pain because of that.

Did anyone use this drug (mainly intended for use after organ transplant to avoid rejection)? It works for peripherial neuropathy and I think it should then work on tinnitus as well. Should work similarly as HBO as it works on MTor pathway and has something do with removing dead mitohondrias...

Do you use some of these meds and you have no T increase? Because some forum members think T increases because of it. Also I see you have T for just few months now, so I wonder if you tried HBO?

Maybe inject lidocain nearby blood vesell that goes to ear. I am not expert in cardiovascular things, so this might be techically false, as I do not know how drugs get transported via blood. I suppose they have to go throught heart, but then i hope they don't. Another possible mechanism is...

Aren't Pregabalin and Gabapentin supposed to be bad for tinnitus? I am not sure if T is a side effect for some of these drugs, but for Carbamazepine, which is similar drug type, it is. Also Gabapentin should be less ototoxic than Pregabalin.

Is it better now?
