That's an awesome idea. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help for the video. The more people that learn how awful this condition can be the more awareness we could raise and the better chance we all are for getting a cure or treatment. Best of luck and great idea for sure!- Charles_T

Is Tinnitus the Only Condition for Which People Blame Themselves?
While there is no guarantee that money would give us a cure for Tinnitus it would certainly improve the chances of a cure for Tinnitus. Cancer in some forms actually can be cured these days. For example last year my wife's dad got cancer and then he had chemotherapy and surgery and he was cured... -

@Apolonia running is good for you and won't have a negative effect on your hearing and also should help your Tinnitus.

Opiates for Chronic 24/7 Tinnitus?
