    FREQ stock is tanking today and there has been a lot of insider selling by the directors, including Christopher Loose. Any idea what may be going on?

    I Feel So Weak and Helpless — I Don't Want to Spend My Life Alone

    @aot Welcome to Tinnitus Talk. You have lots of new friends here!! We are a very supportive community and a lot of us have been on here for years.

    22, New to Tinnitus, Pretty Damn Sad Right Now

    Is there even money in music anymore? Tinnitus may have saved you from a life of being broke! On a serious note, I agree with all that has been said. Stay away from loud noise and baby the hell out of your ears. The level of ringing should diminish then. You will survive this and remember you...

    Dating with Tinnitus and Hyperacusis

    Why not include that you have tinnitus in your dating profile? In doing that, you will be able to weed out all the people who won't understand your condition. You may also attract people with similar problems. I don't use dating sites because I'm from a generation where advertising that you are...

    In a Loud Bar for 10 Minutes — Tinnitus Now Spiked — Is This Permanent?

    @whatdidyousay A prime example of how little the public is aware of the dangers of loud noise. The owners of this establishment are exposing customers and employees to harmful levels of sound. Some of them future tinnitus sufferers, I'm afraid. I try to avoid places like this. The acoustics in...

    Why Is It So Uncommon to See People with Tinnitus Protecting Their Ears

    I didn't know I was supposed to protect my damaged ears from noise until reading the horror stories on Tinnitus Talk about tinnitus getting permanently worse after repeated noise exposure. So I think it's due to lack of education and pure ignorance.

    Honestly, for those who are ruing their lack of a social life due to tinnitus, if you had your hearing restored to its pristine state, would you start going again to loud places like bars, concerts, sporting events and restaurants? Especially with what you know now about how damaging noise can...

    Frequency Therapeutics — Hearing Loss Regeneration

    Biotechs are incredibly risky. They can shoot up or down 300-400% overnight! Very volatile. With that being said, I still plan to pick up more shares of Frequency Therapeutics before they announce their phase 2 results. Been following them for a long time and trust their leadership.

    Ringing Tinnitus Spike and Going Insane — Could Earbuds Have Caused This?

    @Seymour You seem to be exposing yourself to a lot of unnecessary noise. In addition to the curcumin and magnesium I would cut out ALL noise (even if it means sleeping on the couch!) and give your ears a break. And congrats to you and your girlfriend!! Cheers

    Yes, I did. If you want the stock Tinnitus Talk members, better buy it now. It's already up over 10% from the IPO! The upgrades should move it up even more... https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NASDAQ/FREQ/price-target/

    In the US, FREQ is available on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. The best thing to do would be to contact a brokerage house in your country and ask them how to get access to that market and/or FREQ shares.

    Frequency Therapeutics — Hearing Loss Regeneration

    No significant improvement in audiograms. Which contradicts their whole premise of hearing restoration via regeneration of hair cells. I'm sorry, but that was a big disappointment. Not to be a pessimist, but throwing millions of dollars and the brightest minds at something does not guarantee...

    How to Accurately Check How Loud Your Tinnitus Is?

    Can you hear it in a quiet room? Before tinnitus, I experienced DEAD SILENCE! Now I hear a faint and sometimes not so faint ringing. Why do bars and restaurants have to be so d@mn loud?? They are killing their patrons and employees hearing!! Loud music, no sound absorption, it's ridiculous and...

    Frequency Therapeutics — Hearing Loss Regeneration

    Let's hope they improve results within that time span. With the disappointing results announced so far, I won't be standing in line for it now. Considering they are just now starting to test this in humans, there is plenty of room for improvement.

    Frequency Therapeutics — Hearing Loss Regeneration

    I'm confused. Are the results being discussed now not from the cochlear implant study?
  51. Flamingo1

    Frequency Therapeutics — Hearing Loss Regeneration

    So this trial done on people getting cochlear implants (which is what I meant in my last post.) If true, I stand by my point that the patients in this study had extremely compromised hearing to start with. Perhaps audiogram improvements are more likely in patients with healthier cochlea.
  52. Flamingo1

    Frequency Therapeutics — Hearing Loss Regeneration

    Uhh... Weren't the participants of this study in such bad shape that they were having their cochlea removed?? It sounds like these people had more problems than just hair cells hence the lack of improvement in their audiogram. Let's hope this is the case and that multiple doses can help to...
