    Let's just say I can now block it out using a white noise machine below 37 dB. I am more worried that life is all that exists and no after life exists.

    Severe Tinnitus Cured at Terrible Cost by DXM Found in Cough Syrup

    That was one of my theories but I was clinically dead, not brain dead. Clinically dead is where you are not breathing and your heart stops. Brain dead is where no electrical signals exist. I read on a Reddit thread someone suggesting taking a whippet drug. His explanation was like whacking a...

    Severe Tinnitus Cured at Terrible Cost by DXM Found in Cough Syrup

    No need to apologise. If someone posted a similar statement I would had a similar reaction. Hence, the "I will not waste your time". The fact remains that my tinnitus has changed from being loud high pitched to moderate low pitch after DXM. The problem is finding the catalyst that resulted in...

    Severe Tinnitus Cured at Terrible Cost by DXM Found in Cough Syrup

    Doctor recommended that I take a sleeping aid. Started on a small dosage. Worked well. Many people stated it worked better at higher dosage and was safe. Turns out I am slightly allergic and my throat was swollen shut. Luckily my mother found me the next day on the ground.

    I will not waste time stating that I noticed the second links mistake and thought I made a correction post. Because the first link stands: Comparison of ketamine and “dextromethorphan” in potentiating the antinociceptive effect of morphine in rats. The article lists them as NDMA antagonist...

    Severe Tinnitus Cured at Terrible Cost by DXM Found in Cough Syrup

    If any proof is required I can post pictures of myself on the floor after taking the DXM or at the hospital with breathing tubes in. Are you assuming DXM is ototoxic from those two reported cases? Are you saying that no other factors could have been behind their tinnitus? Do you realise you...

    The chemical DXM found in cough syrup has completely cured my high pitched tinnitus (drank a whole bottle). Unfortunately, I was found with no pulse and rushed to the hospital. It also made me think that the doctors were out to get me. In addition I cannot pee.

    Nope. They dug it and they do not have the onus to admit it. They simply ignore the fact each time by whistling or stating "we did not force you to take the drug". They are missing the huge picture where they created an environment where I could not thrive and felt the need to take the drug...
