How's it going Steve. Are you starting to turn the corner? Always here to help buddy!

HI Steve, welcome aboard. Trust me, you Tinnitus will settle down. Your limbic system has your T as priority number 1 so the habituation hasn't taken hold yet. For example, if you woke up tomorrow and found out someone had stolen your car your tinnitus would NOT be the number one priority in...

Just watched The Nature of Things, a show on CBC in Canada, with an episode on this research. Unbelievably exciting stuff, how this device modulates the misfiring in the brain and brings incredible results to some brain injured people. How I would love to try the electric tongue depressor for...

Hello Everyone and especially Kazue. Listen everyone. My T is as brutal as anyone's. But believe me when I say this. Science will produce treatments that will dramatically improve the symptoms of Tinnitus. My Father had Parkinson's Disease ten years ago and there was no meds, nothing, zilch. My...

It's hard to seek support when there's no one to go to. My wife thinks my T is something I should be able to handle because "you're not in pain". She has severe allergies and has had some surgery for arthritis so her issues are more objective. My second malady is clinical depression which can...

Karl, your explanation is interesting. If that is the mechanism for generating t why does it occur in silence ? During silence there is no complex sound which is dismantled into individual tones, etc, etc. help me out with why t occurs during silence using your explanation.

I had my first fitting today for hearing aids. I have some hf hearing loss in both ears and wanting to try them out. My initial 20 minute test drive was impressive. Everything was slightly crisper with no harseness. I heard a fellow softly whistling about 20 feet which I don't think I would have...

Mike, are you still using the Soundcure ? Any updates?

Your ears we're well protected during that MRI so I find it unlikely that is the cause. If you had a coincidental spike you may have assumed that the MRI was the cause which would crank up the stress. I am confident things will settle down. Make sure you get LOTS of sleep.

Nothing to fear with a flu shot. Far more evidence to support getting the shot versus not. The shot is a dead virus, not a weird chemical. I can't believe it would any relationship to T.

Those patterns are very similar to what mine are like Eric. Now the question is WHY?????

Welcome aboard! There is absolutely no reason for scared because you are finally amongst friends and support. You should be very,very,very hopeful because help is on the way. You will be amazed at all the brilliant people working towards relief and of course a cure. I find that the reading I do...

I remember when my t started. I could listen to a song on my iPod and the T would 'dissolve' for about 20 seconds after the song ended then slowly it would reappear. Is this the phenomenon the good doctor will be studying?

My tinnitus is usually fine 3 or so hours aver awakening then it starts to act up in various degrees as the day progresses. Does anyone else have this pattern?

Lisa's story sounds like a photocopy of mine. I had two live altering incidents followed by tinnitus which triggered a very steep drop into major clinical depression. I was very quickly racheted up to 300 mg of Effexor and 25 mg og seroquel at bedtime. There is ample evidence linking t and...

Polar Bear, where in Canada r u ?

Hi Julia , just me thinking of you again. Remember you are not alone. We're here to help you. Lots of bright lights on the horizon.

Hi Julia, Still thinking of you. I know you can get by this. We were all there once. :) :)

Hi Julia , thinking of you today. Hang in there. Don

Hi Julia , thinking about you today. Remember, You are not alone. Don

Julia, hang in there. You are doing great. I love the Xanax thing although I've never taken it. Everybody is totally with you cuz when you got it (T), you really get it. Your Don is doing a great job supporting you too. Your stress and tinnitus love to feed off each other. Time for you to show...

I had my doc prescribe it to me in the same dosage as an earlier successful trial. The brand name in Campral from Forrest laboratories. Took it for a couple with no real change.

Great to hear you found a good chiropractor. Your t definitely sounds mechanical, if that's the right term, rather than occurring from loud noise or hearing loss. I don't like the s word but I was there too and you WILL make it through this! Remember this, in the age we live in, knowledge...

karen, I can't get it either??

This is unbelievable stuff, although it is a bit difficult to understand. I am a GM Dealer but hats off to the Ford Guy on this one! Sounds like the basis of this treatment uses sound cancelling technology. Can't wait to hear more.

Hi Mack. Got it in October 2009. I believe it is the result of two or three factors. I had an audiogram and it revealed some high frequency hearing loss for no good reason. I was never exposed to loud noises. I think that weakness in my hearing made me susceptible to T. Then the combination of...

Hi Tony, You were right when you said "newbie" with your T. I know right now you won't believe me but things WILL get better. Your limbic system will settle down and believe it or not you will habituate to the sound and it will become much less significant, so hang in there leaf fan. One of the...

Very definitely stress, so get that under control and your T will settle down again to the manageable point. No vacuum or flu shot would spike you up that drastically. As far as i'm concerned T is the symptom of stress. I have depression and when I recently went through a bad spell the T was...

What about Canada or North America? Does anyone know of any centers prescribing/selling it? If I could get the number of the Company that would be great.

Doug, I'm in Edmonton. small world, eh. Any more updates?

The toothbrush sounds like a primitive form of sound frequency therapy. But hey why not give it a go! I am curious as to what part of your head hit the metal bar? I am also curious to find out if you have any high frequency hearing loss. Perhaps your Doc can add a tiny little pill for anxiety...

Hi guys, there are some treatments, operations to help with the pulsatative T. It's your body telling you it's alive and well. I would continue to look for blood pressure medication alternatives and/or doses. could your Doc "turn down" your prescription a bit. I would be curious too see if the T...

Started mine in September 2009, three months before I was diagnosed with a severe case of clinical depression. Coincidence, not sure. I'm a hisser for the record and am usually "clean" when I wake up and then the hissing builds through the day. Looking for a hisser just like me to compare notes...
