Back in May I added 50 g each of Tancetum vulgare (petals), Urtica dioica (root) and Rosa canina (hips) to 1 litre of vodka. I heated this to near boiling in my microwave a few times and stirred, then re-heated. I removed the container and after 3 days I added another 300 ml of vodka at room...

Hi Dave The only problem is the actual part of each plant that was used in the trial; root, leaf or flower. I'm tempted at a stab in the dark. Stew the lot up and take some each day. From what I've read about most of these herbs is they have supposed anti inflammatory qualities. If that's the...

I emailed Dr Saeedi a few weeks ago about this trial and Neurotec. I also included a link to this thread. I've not had a reply.

It's early stages at the moment. I find it it certainly reducing my tinnitus to a weak and broken hiss from a constant hiss at a much higher level. I will persist with it and report back. I've had too many false dawns in the past, so time will tell.

@Chris81 After a few hours of listening, it becomes acceptable. It doesn't bother me at all. Initially, I was in bed listening, thinking what a hell of a cacophony it was. Now, a week on, it's just a series of noises. My brain appears to have accepted it. I started at a very low volume, slowly...

When this first came out a few years ago I thought it was yet another expensive mp3 player based piece of junk that was being pushed onto the market. However, after watching the video I realise the researchers at Neuromod are seriously taking this device to an end conclusion as far as research...

It's called the Awakening Response when hearing is the first sense to become active after waking. Cortisol stress hormone level peaks at this time too and slowly diminishes as the day progresses.

Rick Beato, US producer and musician was recently asked on a live chat YouTube channel if he had tinnitus.... Watch from 1:05:58 4th December 2017

This is true, but the practioner needs to be using a high enough laser power in order to vaporise the floaters, and not break them up into smaller fragments. Patients sometimes see tiny gas bubbles as the floaters are vaporised. The bubbles are then reabsorbed and disappear. Floaters present...

Olive oil in the ear canal should prevent ear wax from becoming compacted and causing a problem. I use a few drops of slightly warm oil in my ears once a month from an eye dropper. It should help in the natural cleaning process of the ear canal moving wax to the outside. Please, please, never...

It reduced my anxiety and tinnitus for a while, maybe a couple of months. I felt more able to get on with my life. I then developed tolerance and did not wish to increase the dosage. Kevin Hogan advocates it in his book. It's one of the things that got him over tinnitus.

After years of headaches, migraines and muscular stiffness around my left eye, I have found something that works. I have tried pretty much everything. For the last three weeks I have been taking turmeric powder with freshly-ground black pepper. The first time I tried it, it stopped a headache I...

Who is the author of Tired of Being Tired? There's at least two books with the same title

Not that I am aware of. No supplement or medication can specifically quieten tinnitus from RI. I only wish there was something. The holy grail....

"In 2007 Susan Weed wrote about the Malvaceae family.........." Susan Weed.....you couldn't make that up.

Sorry to hear of your bad experiences with Phenibut. What daily dosage were you taking for it to have this effect?

It was @preslys. I wonder what his situation is as he no longer posts here.

Just read my comments in User Experiences

No, but on my sides above the waist and wrist area. Lasted a short period, a minute or so.

There's a massive thread here on the bioavailability of certain magnesium compounds http://www.longecity.org/forum/topic/54325-magnesium-l-threonate-is-no-more-effective-than-sulfate-form/

Try soaking in a warm bath with about 400g of Epsom salts (Magnesium sulphate) dissolved in it for at least 20 minutes. Relaxing, softens the skin and the magnesium is transdermally absorbed.

Personally, I would rather not have tinnitus. If I shut my eyes, the floaters disappear, tinnitus doesn't. In any case, floaters are curable. Tinnitus isn't. There's a choice.

I had the same things going on when I closed my eyes. Mirror images that were animating.

I do not experience any lowering of tinnitus after discontinuation. During the time I took the drug there were episodes of quiet, but these were unpredictable and increasing the dose for a short time towards the end did not result in any increased period of quiet. This is true. My supply of...

I took a small daily dose of Xanax a few years ago after reading Kevin Hogan's book. My anxiety levels reduced dramatically and so did the tinnitus, to the point it never bothered me. I felt normal again for about a month until the Xanax effect wore off and it would have meant taking ever...

Retigabine skeptic, Dr Nagler, asked this very same question. I can only guess it's because this drug has "hit or miss" action.

@papu I reduced the doseage after the bad reaction then increased it slowly back up to 200mg three times a day. I think I was increasing the dose (to 600mg daily) too quickly, hence the reaction.

I have had tinnitus since 1988 and have recently started taking retigabine. I have just updated the Retigabine User Experience thread of my findings. On one occasion I had a bad reaction to it, but decided to persevere. It is detailed in my post. It appears to be having a positive effect on my...

Use both ears and adjust the tone until it matches your tinnitus sound. It's not easy as tinnitus can be a mix of sounds. Mine is like a TV tube, high pitched, with an associated hiss.

I would guess it's the frequency response of the headphones/speaker you are using not being able to reproduce the high frequencies, rather than the processor. I have experienced the same thing with cheaper headphones.

But it isn't a "trial", it says in the header on the first page. ATEOS, your experience is valued the same as anyone elses This is not a trial; it is a way for members to share their experiences which can get lost within the long conversations in the main thread. It is in no way an endorsement...

Doxylamine, an antihistamine, works as a sleep aid. I have used it in the past and it is very effective https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doxylamine

A "preclinical model" involving results for rodents being alleviated of tinnitus compared to that in the human model - a few minutes or hours for rats and in a human, 3 months, 6 months or more? AUT63 possibly does something to help tinnitus in some patients. It is unlikely we shall ever find out.

Not only was the Autifony trial "fishy" in the way it was concluded, I also "smell a large laboratory rat" with the whole affair.

Seems to me they had doubts about the trial length. What were the "preclinical models"? laboratory rodents? My specifications for any future tinnitus drug trial: 1. Anyone with tinnitus for more than 6 months can be admitted 2. Anyone with any level of hearing 3. Trial number of at least 150...

Unlikely to be a cure, not when the likes of Autifony and all their scientific expertise has failed so dismally. I am finding it increasingly difficult to feel optimistic

I would try 5 HTP and/or L theanine. If these fail, then valerian

Autifony gave us all some hope, and then, nothing.... My thoughts are with everyone that continues to suffer

Unfortunately, the UK money was specifically for a clinical trial of AUT00063

Without knowing all the facts, and with what we know at present about this failed trial, they may find it extremely difficult in the future to gain funding or investment into similar compound studies.

Sample size does cost money, but they did have £2.2M to play around with

Disappointed

It's all here in its depressing detail http://www.autifonytherapeutics.com/autifony-news.asp This is everything we know

The funding was for the Phase IIa trial. I think questions need to be asked about this in parliament about how the trial funding was granted to a drug that only showed efficacy in laboratory rodents, then followed by a "full" clinical trial which is subsequently carried out with an...

£2.2M funding for a trial number of 58 candidates. That crudely works out at £38,000 per person

Just to remind us all, Autifony received £2.2M in funding from the UK government to carry out research with the tinnitus trial of AUT00063 http://www.tinnitus.org.uk/autifony-awarded-22m-to-progress-drug-trial-for-tinnitus

.....and isn't it incredible that only 4 (?) trial participants out of the potential 152, came on this forum to express their experiences.

What "respectable person"? Can you be more specific as we are all hanging by a thread wanting to hear real, authentic information, not vague anecdotes. Thanks

It's Turing Pharmaceutical not Turning. The YouTube video title is wrong

Not always possible. I have it for over 25 years. It's the first thing I hear in the morning, and the last thing I hear at night. I have been bothered by it to some degree, every one of those 9000 days.
