    Why Has Damage Been Ruled Out as a Cause for Hyperacusis or Ear Pain?

    To me this is solid information,not just to me but others as well.Sure we can't stop or prevent things getting worse but when you can listen to yourself when it comes to your health you should do it.That includes everyone,your family,your work etc etc.Try to live as much as you can but do not...

    Why Has Damage Been Ruled Out as a Cause for Hyperacusis or Ear Pain?

    That's the problem with this phantom pain.They can't see damage so they rule it out "and nothing can be done". In a diagnostic outcome you're technically better off with a loss of limb because.. well that's hard to miss. There is damage,they just have nothing that can measure and conclude it...

    Having some form of PTSD and panic attacks (i think 10 of them over years) with potential over exposure to sound and medication there's many possible causes.IMO it's definitely my panic attacks that messed up my brain. (well in certain neurological pathways).

    Inner Ear Hair Cell Regeneration — Maybe We Can Know More

    AM-101 Clinical Trial — Participants Updates and Discussion

    Yet Another Example of How Poor Tinnitus Awareness Is

    I believe that water has the most effect on your ears when it comes to pressure.Don't get me wrong but air pressure does have an effect as well in high altitude.It's just that you're in direct contact with the water pressure.I'm pretty sure that diving 20 feet deep into water has more pressure...

    From what I can find you're not allowed to have them without a doctor prescription. "The Misuse of Drugs Act classes barbiturates as class B drugs, which means they can be bought in accordance with a doctor’s prescription, but any other form of possession or supply counts as an offence. The...

    Hearing Recovered, Tinnitus Went Away

    It's actually curable,but that's mostly within a certain time period. So all the alternative things you added might have helped or not. I'm pretty sure mine is chronic now,although anti depressant takes the edge off and makes the sound in my head go away.

    Tinnitus Hub / Talk Survey Results

    According to current standards, who knows what kind of damage they're not detecting with their tests. Just to make it clear that I made this observation from my personal experience with the audiologist, they would've settled with the results from the test up to 8 kHz and I had to make a...

    Hearing Recovered, Tinnitus Went Away

    I actually had an audiogram up to 15KHz,they stopped because i couldn't hear anything above 14KHz. The reason why an audiogram uses a limited spectrum is because the speech volume very rarely goes above 8KHz.

    If Tinnitus Is a "Problem" Only of the Inner Ear, Why We Have to Visit Other Doctors?

    The funny thing is when you have a loss of hearing within that range you have Tinnitus according to them lol. Otherwise they dismiss it as being hearing loss,or rather natural loss of hearing capability. Edit: Officially you have no damage unless it's between 4KHz and 8KHz,they don't even...

    If Tinnitus Is a "Problem" Only of the Inner Ear, Why We Have to Visit Other Doctors?

    Specialized in Tinnitus?from what i have experienced with an ENT and audiologist they are not specialized. There is no way for your ENT to really objectively exclude your ear as being the root of the cause. Unless you have pulsatile T which can be detected while listening for it.Usually a blood...

    No,i'm simply saying that you already gave a very reasonable answer to your own question.

    Let's Induce Tinnitus in the World's Wealthiest People

    You do realize you just gave the best indication of why it doesn't make sense to spend more on compensation than it does research.The brain is not that easy to explore,in the medical field it took a long time before they even acknowledged Tinnitus and this came from people within the medical field.
