    Can You Habituate to Ultra-High Frequency Tinnitus (> 15 kHz)?

    Hi, I’m sorry to hear that you’re dealing with tinnitus. From what I’ve learned, tinnitus caused by acoustic trauma often resolves on its own, especially since you’re still very young. Although this is a difficult time for you, try to find ways to distract yourself. When my tinnitus is really...

    Xenon Pharmaceuticals' XEN1101 — Kv7 Potassium Channel Modulator

    It depended on the level of tinnitus on that day. I would say that Trobalt reduced my tinnitus to a lower level. My tinnitus varies between 10 (level of driving me crazy and being fully handicapped) and sometimes down to 5 (only one tone on the left side and more of a hissing). I had very few...

    Xenon Pharmaceuticals' XEN1101 — Kv7 Potassium Channel Modulator

    I was one of those who took Retigabine (Trobalt). I still have it available, but it is long expired. I took it in "Aspirin Mode" when I was in really bad shape and had to function, meaning I had very loud tinnitus and an important appointment or something else. Trobalt reduced the tinnitus to a...

    Yes, I can comprehend. Same here. But it keeps me believing that one day, T is lower or gone and I can "Enjoy silence" again. My favorite song is now everything with crickets. :-)

    Levetiracetam (Keppra) — Another Possible Potassium Channel Modulator?

    Your tinnitus sounds similar to mine. Very difficult to handle every day. I took Trobalt some years ago and it helped for a few hours after each dose. I stopped because of the side effects. I have not taken Keppra since I don't have hyperacusis. What helped me to some extent, was Escitalopram...

    Cannabidiol (CBD) — Epidiolex

    I have read a story about getting rid of panic attacks, anxiety and depression with CBD oil. The story can be found on https://www.meinwegausderangst.de/mga01/. But it is in German. I hope that also tinnitus can be reduced by using CBD oil or it least makes me calmer. I have ordered the CBD...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    If I can borrow the device in my area in Germany, I will give it a try. But I won't spend money on it. But the problem is that my tinnitus fluctuates. It can be better some days, even weeks and then catastrophic again. So I won't even know after 6 weeks if Lenire had any effect. Still waiting...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Better to spend your money on BioNTech stocks than on Lenire. Lenire is useless. I can remember ONLY one person on the forums that had an improvement. If you can get your money back, do it. Best regards (aus Essen), Martin

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    Sorry being a downer here, but I have not much hope that Dr. Shore's device will be available soon. Neuromod published a product in much less time. OK, it is not really working. ;) But what is so difficult about getting Dr. Shore's device finished? They have been doing tests and trials...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    The webinar just finished. There was not much new for most of us. They presented the Lenire results from the Neuromod studies. Q&A was about costs, treatment length, treatment locations etc. They also presented some slides about what tinnitus is, where it manifests in the brain, that it is a...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Got an eMail from Lenire® <info@lenire.com>: For the Germans (I guess the presentation will be in German language), there is a Webinar planned by two tinnitus experts in Germany. They are talking about Lenire. They do some presentations about "promising results" with Lenire. They explain how...

    Abraham Shulman Tinnitus Protocol (Clonazepam Plus Gabapentin)

    @Chinmoku Seven years here with unbearable tinnitus (3-4 ultra high-pitched sounds in ears and head). First two years with huge anxiety (a feeling that I could jump out of my skin non-stop). With Lexapro, anxiety became better. I am also 100% home worker (computer support) luckily. Otherwise, I...

    @pinklights98 @EDDTEKK @jmasterj I am sorry that it did not help one bit. But thanks for the reports. It makes no sense to me starting this treatment in Hannover, Germany. I see Lenire similar to MuteButton - trial & error. Let's hope that Susan Shore has something better for us.

    https://www.lenire.com/ "can provide" - if you are within the lucky 5%. ;) Nevertheless, no sarcasm. I hope they will continue to improve the device. There is not much more we have. Best would be a device with remote programming.

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Same here. Got a call, but rejected for now. They offered that I can call later to get another appointment. Costs will be approx. 1900€ for the device and additional 850€ for 3 sessions. Altogether 2750€. Good to know it is available in Germany now.

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Same here. But I do not plan to attend atm. Of course I want to get rid of this sh... or lower it. But the success rates are currently too small. Also they could not give me any exact numbers about costs. Therefore, I don't know yet what I will do.

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    There is a huge difference between my 6/10 and 10/10 days. Luckily, 10/10 days became less frequent (maybe 2-3 times week compared to 5-6 in the past). It is still a tough ride. 10/10 means for me some loud high-pitched (even > 15 kHz) tones. What I want to say: If Lenire would bring me back...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    It would be important that Neuromod publishes new data from real patients. And also about experiences and learning if they could further improve the device (timing, frequency etc). I am sure the device is more or less still in experimental phase and there is much room for optimizing it.

    Tinnitus from a Bike Tire Explosion

    @Winter Hello Winter, The current time is a roller coaster ride for you and your family. Most of us have been there where you are. And you try each and everything to get relief (vitamins, therapies, massage, acupuncture, TRT, mindfulness, yoga, whatever else). And every time nothing helps...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Yes. Looks like it. And if they charge for the other appointments, too, one could end up with much more than 2900€. Probably better to fly to Dublin directly to Neuromod. At least you can be sure they know exactly what they should do with you and how to set up the device. But flying 4 times is...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    @Jan64 They said that the Lenire device will be 1900 €, which has to be paid directly to Lenire via credit card. But they will do a complete diagnostic test before they start the treatment and they said that this will cost approx. 1000€. This is for the first visit. (n) I can only say: This...

    From the clinic. I cannot give more details at the moment. It is all "under construction" and no concrete plans (starting date for example) are known. Once I know more, I will share. BTW, people here wrote already that someone from Germany is shadowing the assessments. So I guess, Germany will...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Usually I am a very skeptical person. And I do not expect miracles from Lenire. But we need to consider it is a new treatment for tinnitus. I am sure that Neuromod and others are learning from current patients and could (and hopefully will) improve the device. If the device is changing...

    Agreed. Just reading the latest Experiences. Doesn't look really promising. :( So now waiting another 1-2 years for the device from Dr. Susan Shore? Or hoping that some other patients using Lenire report success. But they seem to be not on Tinnitus Talk...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    My hopes about Lenire are not that high currently. Two have worse tinnitus, even though I think this is related to tinnitus reacting to noise (in particular to white noise) - which is different to my tinnitus. Some report tinnitus improvement, but this could also be placebo or could have...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    @Allan1967 @valeri I could imagine that Neuromod can modulate the sounds to something your tinnitus does not react on. My tinnitus was also highly reactive first months after tinnitus onset. Luckily this settled down and white noise or ACRN beep sounds mask my tinnitus, but not increase it...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    For the Germans here... Today I contacted the tinnitus clinic in Regensburg via eMail. As far as I thought, this is the clinic that would make Lenire available in Germany. At least I remember that the clinic was also working with Neuromod, but I can be wrong. Whatever, there are no plans...

    @Allan1967, I really hope it gets better for you. Stay strong and confident.

Maybe they can remove the white noise from...

    Thanks for information. But really strange. Sounds a little bit like a lottery to me - if you can hear the sounds or not. At least I will not plan to travel from Germany to Dublin being rejected.

    @Nanny chocolate I have good hearing up to 8 kHz. Then it goes down. Can hardly hear high-pitched external sounds. Cricket sounds for masking have to be louder than usual. I would assume that many people at my age (50) or older have that hearing drop - but don‘t know since most hearing tests...

    My tinnitus fluctuates. Currently, I have luckily a lower period (some days). I would rate it a 4/10 (which I have very seldom). Normally it is between 8/10 and 10/10. Hence I am wondering how they adjust to this when doing the initial assessment.
