    My Trip to Bangkok: Stem Cell Treatment [Comments]

    Does anyone know if anyone on this board has had stem cells delivered through Intratypmpanic injection? It seems that this gets the stem cells to the exact place they need to get to, so logically that would have the best chance of success. Just like when someone has a knee problem, stem cell...

    I agree with Samantha R. Many people look at alternative treatments like Stem Cell Therapy as being scams when they don't work. But do traditional mainstream treatments at mainstream accredited western hospitals work all the time? Of course they don't. People die from ALS and other...

    @LJMD also went to Stem Cells 21 and claims he had a 25% reduction that came from injections around the ear. See posts in last page of: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/my-trip-to-bangkok-stem-cell-treatment-comments.1891/ Or was the 25% reduction due to the natural ups and downs of...

    My Trip to Bangkok: Stem Cell Treatment [Comments]

    Here's the link to Stem Cells 21 Tinnitus treatment section: https://stemcells21.com/eye-hearing/stem-cell-tinnitus-treatment/ From what I've seen, very few clinics specifically offer a Tinnitus treatment. If anyone knows of any other do post. What's interesting is that they also offer...

    That sort of is my point. We're approaching almost 25,000 registered users on this site and only 4 that I know of have done stem cell therapy. I think it's a very promising treatment for many conditions. Unfortunately, I have not found many places, especially in the US that specifically...

    Folate May Improve Tinnitus

    "For noise-induced tinnitus, which is characterized by a chronic or near-chronic ringing in the ears, Folate (vitamin B9), has been shown to be beneficial." Note that they recommend Folate in its natural form, L-Methylfolate (5-MTHF). Folic Acid, which is synthetic, is not recommended...

    As far as LLLT goes, not really. I did 10 days with him in Ibiza then I also bought the home laser and did 30 minutes per day, 5-6 days per week for about 1.5 years. The only difference is that I've habituated and tolerate the ringing better. The volume didn't change. However I have read...

    Unique Access Medical in Thailand

    Why do you say that stem cells do nothing for T? What leads you to draw that conclusion? I'm only aware of only 3 people getting stem cell treatments for T on this forum. That's out of almost 20,000 registered members at this point. I don;t think that's a large enough sample to be able...

    Unique Access Medical in Thailand

    Anecdotes are unfortunately all we have at this point about stem cells and T. So our choices are to sit around, do nothing but complain, ( as it seems most on this forum do ), or take action and try something. ( which it seems very few on this forum do. ) Doing nothing will get you...

    If only we had less people that criticized and complained about everything and more people that got up and took action as Samantha did I think we would all be much better off.

    Unique Access Medical in Thailand

    I heard from the person who did the therapy and she has not posted any updates as she wants to give the stem cell therapy time to work without getting bombarded with questions. In short the hospital that the stem cell therapy is done is called World Medical Centre, which she said was a first...

    Betaserc (Betahistine)

    Tried it too. No effect. I think the doctors prescribe it as unfortunately they don't have much else to offer.

    Magnesium Could Offer Fresh Hope to Tinnitus Sufferers

    An interesting and insightful article: https://www.dddmag.com/article/2017/03/magnesium-could-offer-fresh-hope-tinnitus-sufferers A diet high in Magnesium may at least keep T from getting worse. I'm glad to see that there is good research going on. It should give all T sufferers hope...

    South Korean Clinic Treatment (Dr. Minbo Shim)

    I never had Hyperc or distortion. I could always hear ok but had T over it. See: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/just-started-lllt-with-dr-wilden-in-ibiza.12065/#post-150766

    South Korean Clinic Treatment (Dr. Minbo Shim)

    I actually visited Dr. Wilden in Ibiza in November 2015. ( See previous posts ) I still have T. I did a 10 day therapy in Ibiza and then bought his home laser and have been using it for 30 minutes per day at least 5 days per week. For me the results have been underwhelming and...

    How is your T now? Is it still higher after the intratympanic injections? Or did your T come down again?

    Just Started LLLT with Dr. Wilden in Ibiza

    Sorry about the inactivity. I just updated my setting to get emails when someone starts a conversation with me. I have not been on TT for a few months. Been busy moving and so on... But I do want to answer any questions and help as much as I can. So ask away. I'll answer the questions...

    Just Started LLLT with Dr. Wilden in Ibiza

    In short, my T is better. I notice it less often and it is less severe. I don't hear it in all the places that I did before and am able to tolerate it much better. I also feel that the sound is less intense. Instead of a focused high pitched ring it's more of a gentle hiss, like air...

    Just Started LLLT with Dr. Wilden in Ibiza

    I was going to wait a while before I posted an update as from what I read LLLT can take some time to kick in and be effective. I finished 10 days of therapy less than a week ago. Am I cured of my T now? No, I still hear it. But I do think that there has been a positive effect. I...

    Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for Tinnitus — Experiences (Dr. Wilden, etc.)

    Philip83, I don't know what frequencies Dr. Wilden uses. I do know it's 2 different frequencies that are used at the same time. There are 2 different lasers spinning around. He places the laser machine about 10 or so cm. away from your ear. Not directly in your or or on your ear as I've...

    Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for Tinnitus — Experiences (Dr. Wilden, etc.)

    I never thought I had any hearing loss. But I guess you don't notice if you gradually lose it over time. I did however notice the increase in hearing which happened over a few days and still remains. What I also did notice was my T and the recent spike in my T. That's my primary...

    Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for Tinnitus — Experiences (Dr. Wilden, etc.)

    So I did an audiogram today at Dr. Wildens office right before my 8th one hour therapy. ( Half an hour on each ear ) See below . The top is the before pic taken 9 days ago before the first therapy and the bottom was taken today before my 8th therapy. As I mentioned earlier, I did feel that...

    Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for Tinnitus — Experiences (Dr. Wilden, etc.)

    Dr. Wilden certainly tells you to avoid noise and wear ear plugs, yes. He claims if noise started the T them more noise from things such as maskers or hearing aids will not make the situation better. I also bought his home laser today too. It's 2.660 Euros. Pricey, but I hope its' worth...

    One more thing. I ran across another place offering LLLT for ear issues in Hamburg Germany: http://www.robert-kroll.com/ I have not ran across his name in this forum before so I figured I'd post it. The website is entirely in German so I can't understand most of it. But Robert Kroll did...

    Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for Tinnitus — Experiences (Dr. Wilden, etc.)

    First of all I am not working for Dr. Wilden. Based on some of the past responses I knew I would get some sort of cynical response. Quite the opposite, I'm paying out a lot of money. 2.000 Euros for 10 days of treatment. Plus I plan on buying the home machine to use after my 10 days of...

    Attached is the audiogram I did at Dr. Wildens office just before I started my first therapy. I don't have to much hearing loss. That's never been my issue. I just have the ringing T. At least up to 12k. Dr. Wilden says I may have more loss over 12k but the audiogram only goes up to...
