I think what you are doing with the finger drumming is redirecting your attention. Oddly enough, though, a lot of people swear by it. And if it works, then go for it.

I purchased DMSO, but after doing some research, I decided not to use it.

Oh no, I lived in San Francisco over 40 years ago. It was nice back then, and my apartment in the Lower Haight cost $375 a month. Now, I think it rents for $3,500. There are no true liberals left in the city. Being politically correct is not the same as being liberal. And when you do find...

Luke speaks the truth about the war in Ukraine:

It is a bad day to be part of the 99 percent of Americans. Republicans just added 3.3 trillion dollars to the national debt while cutting critical benefits for millions of working-class Americans. Do not ever let them gaslight you into believing they are “America First,” especially while they...

Could you please specify the following: 1. How severe were your symptoms initially? 2. How long did it take before you noticed the first improvements? 3. What kind of healing have you experienced, and how long did it take? Thank you.

Tinnitus Research: Novel Compound AC102 Makes Constant Ear Noise Disappear in Preclinical Model

Hahahaha. Hitler-boy is acting like he has power (he does not). I will leave when I feel like it. Not when some mush-brained, weakling orders me to.

I developed this in January 2022. I have no idea what caused it, but I suspect it might have been the COVID booster vaccine, which I received three weeks earlier. I had no issues with the first two doses. It is mild. I can listen to most songs clearly—more or less. I really thought it would go...

Trazodone didn’t help me sleep at all, and as far as I could tell, it didn’t affect my tinnitus. So I stopped taking it. I’ve never taken Mirtazapine. I’ve taken Hydroxyzine, but it didn’t help me sleep either. Quviviq helped a little, similar to Dayvigo, but not enough to keep using it...

I am very interested in the details of your story and healing process. Did you habituate, or did the noise actually decrease? Could you elaborate further?

Just me surmising again, so perhaps it’s nonsense. Starting with the first ten words of the quote: “The development of an effective therapy for tinnitus and hyperacusis…” First, the patient presents to the ENT with subjective tinnitus. After being checked for earwax blockage and tumors, they...

But the whole country is built upon illegal aliens! When did that become a bad thing? Oh, so you have something against criminals now? Are you the same person who claimed that the worst criminal in the history of mankind did a lot of right things? Let us say the leader of some European aryan...

What is your dosage? How old are you?

I developed my tinnitus and hyperacusis in 2019. I had a hearing test back then, and my results were good. Two months ago, I damaged my hearing again after going to a nightclub, even though I was wearing earplugs. But today, on July 3rd, I had another hearing test — and I was amazed. My hearing...

Same here! Please let me know if you find anything that helps.

Hi, I’m so sorry you are going through this. You sound very similar to me. My tinnitus reacts to all sorts of sounds, meaning it gets louder in response to general noise. However, certain specific sounds — like cars, wind, fans, airplanes, etc. — trigger a reactive tone that only appears with...

I had hearing test today and have good news! My hearing is basically the same than 6 years ago and it's actually even improved a bit on 8khz area! So that's good news!

Yeah, sure, fair points about placebo control and risk consideration. However, an ear with a cochlear implant is, by default, destroyed in the process, and that is vastly different from the ears of people with only sensorineural hearing loss, which they seem to highlight on their site...

The United States allows approximately one million people to enter legally, from what I understand. They are properly vetted, unlike the approximately 10 million individuals the Biden administration has allowed in. There is not much to understand about how unprecedented this stupidity was. We...

When the hair cells are destroyed, the cochlea no longer functions as it should. The cochlear nerve just carries the sound to the brain. It appears to me , when the cochlear nerve is cut, no sound is getting to the brain. The cochlear nerve is no longer working. The ringing is the noise from the...

I have ringing bad in my ear. This is not living at all. Mine is so loud. Mycochlear implant just makes it louder. I live in Detroit, Michigan. I want to live again. I want to be rid of this ringing. Why are surgeons afraid to do this in USA?

Base salaries tend to be higher in San Francisco. My salary in Los Angeles was significantly higher than salaries in cities with a lower cost of living.

From their website:

I understand the pain you are in. I was there too. I would bet that most, if not all of us here, have been through it. The first six months were the most difficult for me. I am truly sorry this has happened to you. You are not alone. Come here as often as you need to. Please protect your...

Hey y’all! I’m not fully recovered yet, but I think I’m getting there. What I’ve figured out is that I likely have TTTS, tonic tensor tympani syndrome, and not just hyperacusis on its own. My ear fatigue and burning completely went away after about two months. My tinnitus stopped being reactive...

Cross the border ILLEGALLY. ILLEGAL aliens. What part of ILLEGAL do you not grasp? ILLEGAL = CRIMINAL. Is that simple enough for you, Hitler-face?

Amusement Parks are hazardous. Even with ear plugs I'm probably gonna pay for today's festivities. Just wanna live a little before I die.

If you are in any country illegally, you are technically committing a crime. The individuals currently being rounded up and deported are often beyond that point. Many are gang members involved in human trafficking, murder, rape, assault, robbery, extortion, drug smuggling, and other serious...

Do you take Clonazepam daily? If so, how much?

So what I’m noticing is that after speaking, even just a couple of words, my right ear begins to feel an icy burn. After a little while, the same icy, menthol-like sensation spreads to the right side of my face, behind my right eye, and what feels like the Eustachian tube. Then it moves down...

Also, there are studies on residual hearing outcomes after cochlear implant procedures. If you can show improvement following implantation, that evidence already speaks for itself. In essence, the placebo effect has already been accounted for.

Tinnitus tends to become much louder when we focus on it (just stating the obvious). So the best advice I can offer is to keep yourself occupied. Do things, stay busy, and direct your attention elsewhere. I know that is easier said than done, but honestly, it is the only approach that has ever...

Hi how are you? how is your T going??

Hola Sarah, ¿cómo estás? ¿Cómo te va ?

Hi Jason, im your age no health issues, aventador owner, had exposure to plastdip vapor for 4 hours strait, woke up with screaming high pitch ringing ears. been 22 days now. Ramps up strong, then settles down, repeat. Noise activated but less noise activated now. Did you ever get a DPOAE test...

I have been suffering from periodic ringing in my ears for years. However, this week, one of my ears became clogged, and I assumed it just needed cleaning. After my primary care physician cleaned my ears, I began experiencing constant ringing. I went to the emergency room after nearly fainting...

I've been taking 425mg of Magnesium Glycinate every night for the past couple of years, so I don't have any reference on whether it might be helping in this situation. Maybe it is, but I wouldn't know unless I stopped taking it. Yeah, they're just too loud putting on and off for sure, and I...

I guess the Prednisone was helping reduce my tinnitus, because now that I’m on day three of tapering down to 20 mg (dropping 10 mg every three days from an initial dose of 50 mg), my tinnitus has exploded. Both ears are worse, but the left one—where I messed up the earplug—is the more affected...

Good luck, and thank you for sharing. I am also using Clonazepam to manage the anxiety associated with tinnitus. I have read research suggesting that this medication can reduce the loudness, and I have found that to be true in my case. I am curious about increasing my dose to see if it might...

It is strange. I have been acknowledged as having been affected, as much as the U.S. government is ever going to acknowledge anyone. Ultimately, there will never be a smoking gun in this. I will never truly know whether I am some extreme outlier with a bizarre medical condition that has no clear...

There you go! Amen to that! Let's give it time. 3.5 years to go. I can't say because I have no idea what you are talking about. Go easy on them, they are still human beings. They just did not know that the American dream is dead and that the land of opportunity is no more. However, I admit...

According to the U.S. Department of State, as of January 2025, there have been more than 1,500 reported cases of Havana syndrome among U.S. government employees and their families stationed worldwide. The symptoms, which include headaches, dizziness, cognitive dysfunction, and other neurological...

I imagine the rationale is that if something goes wrong in these early-stage tests and hearing is lost, it happens in an ear that is already functionally deaf, rather than in an ear that still has hearing to lose.

Worth $4K? Was the relief durable, @gracepixie, @RODRIGO?

Life is better in San Francisco. It is too hot in Austin and the rest of Texas.

People who are already undergoing an operation on their ear make placebo control easier. Those with little usable hearing left also present less risk. It allows for better measurement of the treatment’s impact through the implant, rather than relying purely on patient reports. This is not meant...

I take it daily. I had been taking 2 mg per day, which is the same dose I took from 1999 to 2005, and then again briefly from 2010 to 2011. I am now down to 1 mg per day. I would say that as the dose has decreased, there has been the usual difficulty that comes with benzodiazepine tapering. I...

Does 500 mg of Magnesium help?

OK, I get it. The “autistic ketamine addict” is the wealthiest man in the world, and Mr. Bronzer is the most powerful. The former should focus on medical breakthroughs, and the latter did not destroy the economy through tariffs, which has surprised some financial pundits who had predicted he...

Same reason all the other stuff is repeated... it probably worked for a subset of people, possibly due to the Meniere’s cohort, and since there is nothing else available, it keeps getting parroted. That is the same reason tinnitus is still broadly tied to anxiety and stress, even though that...

Yeah, they are a bit on the creaky side. I actually had better luck with some cheap ones from Amazon in that regard, but wearing glasses is still a problem. And not to mention, it is nearly impossible to avoid bumping into door frames and cupboards while wearing them. No, they are far from...

Hi Michael X, your symptoms match my own perfectly. It was diagnosed as Middle Ear Myoclonus. I have recently had intratympanic Botox treatment in the UK and it was wholly unsuccessful. I have had this 13 years now and am currently 2 months into my latest intense bout. So so annoying but...

Halfway Through the Year Update (02/07/25) Progress is definitely slower now, probably because I have already come a long way. But I still believe I can eliminate my tinnitus through my Tinnitus Retraining Therapy course, the nightguard, and supplements. I am trying to listen to the sound...

Thanks, I just ordered some online. I will let you know if I notice any difference.
