    University of Birmingham — Identifying Cochlear Nucleus Drug Targets

    If that is the case, does it mean if a drug for tinnitus/hyperacusis was created right now, it could only be available 10+ years from now, so that scientists can monitor for any side effects?

    Suicidal

    That is so horrifying to hear. The idea of death is so scary but when people suffer the way they do, it has me thinking death might be a mercy. I don't know if I am still mild or moderate, but I really hope it never gets severe... I don't want to traumatize my family.

    Tinnitus After 1 Hour of Loud Concert at Home (Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour)

    I feel you, man. I haven't been the same since I got it, and it has only been over a year! And every single day since, I had been thinking how it would be if I didn't have tinnitus or hearing loss.

    Can tinnitus cause visual snow? I have had tinnitus for 11 months now. In that time I have noticed a decrease in my hearing ability. For the last 3 months I have occasionally got bursts of visual snow. It would slowly fade away after a few seconds. Is this a too much time on the phone...

    I see all your points of views and thank y'all for sharing them. That being said, I still feel like how you are treated is based on your looks, and I am below average, so I kind of get treated like shit or ignored.

    Today I found out not only am I semi-disabled, but I am ugly as well. Born with scaphocephaly, my head is long and narrow. This odd head shape basically makes me a permanent 4/10. I don't look good at all, no sex appeal. Basically, I will find no love. I could handle the tinnitus and hearing...

    I am honestly at peace and looking forward to getting hearing aids within the next 1-4 years. I don't even feel like dwelling on what could have been if my ears were healthy. I just want to do my best in life now. But I do have a question and that is: will Dr. Shore's device remove the brain...

    A protective pill that might not even work. If it was something like a regenerative pill that has been proven to show some decent results, I would back it up, but it's not even that.

    Hough Ear Institute's Hair Cell Regeneration Project

    You would think, after so much begging for money since 2014, that they would need less than $500 million dollars. That's a gigaton of money. Even if this thing is the real deal, I doubt these guys will receive the funding. It's essentially dead in the water.

    I saw the USA military statistics. It's crazy how they receive so much funding compared to the medical side of the USA. And what's even more crazy is that the military doesn't put much funding into developing a tinnitus cure. Yeah, hopefully after Shores device we will be fine.

    So the drug worked on cadavers and mice, was injected to people who were about to get cochlear implants so the scientists could see it went where needed. But it still failed... I'm still lost on how this worked on cadavers but not living people.

    By this time next year, it's surely going to be out. Or a few years, or a few more decades or in the next century (where we will all be gone). The thing is just that we really don't know when this cure will ever be made or if it will be made. I hope AI speeds up the process.
