    Not Coping

    Jaw pain? Series of sneezes? This could be TMJ disorder causing tinnitus and not hearing loss. A dentist could use an xray to see if you have any jaw problems.

    Tinnitus Retraining Therapy

    No, I understand. Before I wasn't aware how involved you were in things.

    Tinnitus Retraining Therapy

    Alright then. That's easily the worst. They spend BILLIONS a year on bogus Tinnitus Retraining and "Cognitive Behavioral Therapy" and pennies on legitimate research. It' a travesty. The ATA is standing in the way of war veterans being cured so they can make a buck. But I know enough about...

    Tinnitus Retraining Therapy

    Why? Why are you protecting the reputations of these people? It's obvious they want to shut down any actual chance for a cure for tinnitus so they can keep their scam (mainly of the elderly) going as long as possible. They're no better than those online scam artists spamming miracle cures...

    Autifony Therapeutics Phase II Study for AUT00063, for the Treatment of Hearing Loss and Tinnitus

    Science marches on, and one day those Tinnitus Retraining Therapy charlatans will be relegated to the dust bin of medical history where they belong, along with the leeches, witchcraft, and snake oil salesmen.

    Could a Few Thousand Million Dollars Buy Us a Cure?

    I can see you are confused because you are from Europe. In America no one expects the government to be competent or useful in any way. Recently a type of jet that cost the taxpayers $400 Billion was grounded. So far it is years behind schedule , and has not been proven to be of any use to the...

    Did you read the first reddit post in this thread? That guy said the tinnitus was bad for a while before eventually, slowly fading away. Here's the link in case you missed it http://www.reddit.com/r/tinnitus/comments/1m1kiy/follow_up_on_am101_study_i_participated_in/

    So This Is Tinnitus

    It depends. Supposedly the reason we get tinnitus is because the brain doesn't properly adjust to hearing loss. Whenever you hear a ringing noise after being in a loud area that is your brain adjusting to your new, irreversible hearing loss. For some reason, for people who get tinnitus, the...

    AM-101 TACTT1 Results Released

    Well thanks for trying Meestijn. I was going to try to get in, but then I found out the trials were located in Germany. Why do they get all the brand new medical testing? As far as I can tell there is nothing even close going on in America despite the government throwing $2 billion in the...

    Should I Avoid Any Loud Situations at the Moment?

    Yes, avoid any loud situation especially any prolonged, persistent loud noise. I had tinnitus for years, and stupidly assumed "it couldn't get any worse" because I am a moron. So I spent a long time around very loud engines and drilling with no ear protection (I can't stress how stupid and...

    Poll: Did You Know What Tinnitus Was Before You Acquired It?

    In a previous thread I stated my belief that the most important thing for any nascent tinnitus movement is, above all else, the development of some sort of media campaign to inform or educate people about the dangers of tinnitus. That opinion hinges on the assumption that people are basically...

    Can Tinnitus Be Cured? What Is Going to End Up Being the Cure?

    Well let me ask you. Had you ever heard of tinnitus or been aware of it's incurable nature before you got it? I certainly wasn't and I'd guess most people are blissfully unaware of tinnitus and the danger of loud noises towards it's development. That's why I think the most important possible...

    Can Tinnitus Be Cured? What Is Going to End Up Being the Cure?

    Sorry about that. I only wanted to point out what I think is the roadblock towards getting a cure. People simply don't care because, in my opinion, tinnitus sufferers as a whole, aren't vocal enough. Good people, who would otherwise be productive, happy members of society are having there...

    Can Tinnitus Be Cured? What Is Going to End Up Being the Cure?

    I have had tinnitus for 8 years and just recently, due to workplace noise, it has gotten much worse to the point where masking it with the radio or tv is impossible without getting noise complaints from the neighbors. I had been hoping that, in the 8 years I have been trying to ignore it that...
