There was once a dentist that used morphine to sedated his patients before treating their teeth. He didn't share his knowledge: morphine with anyone. This way he became very rich and famous and lived a life of pomp and abundance. And I have a feeling pretty much the same thing will be happening...

Exactly! Anyhow, where there is no proof there is no liability.

The patient in this video obviously has tiny tinnitus. She only perceived it in total silence and she thinks that tinnitus is not a debilitating condition like other physical diseases. Worse, Dr. Tanit Ganz Sanchez totally agrees. Tinnitus is just annoying, but no big deal. Yeah, right!! To be...

@jeanoroid , So you can't mask either, aye?

What if your T is unmaskable?

He can at the very least mask it. I can't.

I certainly know little, but I know some have it really bad. Thus, staying productive as in work for a living is realistically impossible for them. You don't say to a wheelchair bound person, "Hey, just keep on walking would be a good start." ;)

Beware of CIs! Their main side effect is causing T. But no one selling CIs will tell you! It's the dirty secret of the CI manufacturers and physicians. Moreover, CI is not comparable with normal hearing everything sounds robotic! You sound like tiny T. No offense, but if you had bad T, you...

Yes, but 90% have minor T, which is exclusively perceivable when plugging the ears or in total silence. Thus they hab eventually and a real treatment, let alone a cure, isn't paramount for them anymore. Neuromonics trial.. sound placebo therapy. Awesome! Looks like they refuse intelligent people.

Too early!!

That sounds delightful. So maybe, if we can't change those fluids, electricity is the answer!?

So it's all just a game to you? You can censor sensitive data. Besides, who would want to stalk you? We'd like to see your results for comparison reason. Otherwise we've to presume it's all just another scam.

Evidence @Christian78 ?

@Gin , You said the treadmill helps so maybe that's a treatment: more physical exercises. And the wine in the evening. ;) Maybe your T has to do with blood circulation. Wine thinnes the blood. Cardio workout increases the blood circulation.

It's hard to tell. I had an annoying tonal melody on one ear for several months like plus 5 months. Eventually it went away but other noises arose. It's a rollercoaster. Reactive and constantly changing.

It disappears completely. Wow! That's awesome. Mine only gets calmer. Though it's a gamble for sometimes it does nothing or worse it gets louder.

@Gin , I can relate. I'd suggest unconsciousness. Anything that knocks you out cold for some hours. Getting REM sleep can calm down T. But getting there is most days mission impossible. So yes, sleeping meds for short-term may be an option. Another option, yourself. Namely Gin, alcohol...

How can anybody hab to something as capricious as reactive T? Honestly, hab is just an excuse for "there's nothing we can do for you, so you had better get used to it." Of course, if you had minor T the kind you only perceive in total silence or if you plugged your ears it's probably possible...

Concentration as well as sleep elude me entirely. I feel like a zombie most days. And right now is a legendary bad day! If you can work while having T respect!

I can totally relate! I'd been completely deaf on one ear for almost two weeks. Fortunately, like yours my hearing did slowly recover. Though, not completely! Still having hearing loss and extreme reactive T.

No gym going for me! Only outdoor sports or private classes. Same applies to some fashion stores. It's crazy! I genuinely hope T becomes epidemic. Fingers crossed.

Move. And train some arts like Jiu Jitsu, ballet.

How can you tell? Who knows, maybe they had much more and history just repeats itself like it always does. Judgment day.

But there should be a tendency. For instance, cochlea implants cause T. It may be intermittent or constant.

Yes, as long as the side effects are impermanent.

Wishful thinking.

They had WiFi back then? ;)

While I agree to some extent with your theory, I question that the neurons of auditory system die. Or if they did, the brain must have created new ones otherwise we would not hear all these noises. @jeanoroid , Not everybody. I just thought evil twin..

@Sound Wave , Where are the experiments that prove that RF do not cause or worsen T? See, there are none. Thus they assume that RF is safe. And especially for it's huge money business. Oil. Anybody?

Genetics and evolution. The amount makes the poison. For instance, if you start taking snake venom in very small quantities and step by step upper the dosage eventually your body will build resistance. And one day, your body is completely immune against a full snake bite.

Fair. My point was I think "checking" is something for patients with minor T and/or OCD. Nevertheless, I get your message: try not to consciously concentrate on the noise for it won't fix it. But you see, some have no choice at all. For volume and reactivity matter.

@jeanoroid , I never had to plug my ears to hear my T. Essentially, and especially for its reactivity, I can hear it anywhere. So yes, it cannot be masked. Nor is "checking" an option. I genuinely wish it was.

I wish I had such a T.

I had this too! It's called musical ear syndrome. It lasted a few weeks as well. It seems like the brain can record monotonous sounds as long as you listen to them for some time. At the time, I experimented with this and I was able to overwrite one monotonous sound/music with another. At some...

Speaking of anti-inflammatory, have you heard of UFC president Dana White's anti-inflammatory treatment? He had had Ménière's disease. He flew all the way down to Germany for a secret treatment in an exclusive clinic that triggers the immune system into healing. From what I read, they take...

What kind of surgery? What have been proposed to you?

@Sound Wave , How can you tell? What happens when we put you in a microwave oven? ;)

That's typical projecting your own condition upon others. Like I've a broken finger. You've a broken spine. We've the same thing. So what is the big deal? Or your boss is simply a psychopath. Many bosses are.

Psychology the power placebo for everything. You just gotta believe in it. ;)

The power of the placebo effect. T is just too whimsical.

That's the ossicles moving. Every time you swallow a muscle moves the eardrums, which moves the ossicles that are attached to the oval window of the cochlea.

Then it's very likely not permanent T but over- or underpressure in the middle ear, which affects the inner ear AKA cochlea.

While I definitely understand your precautions avoiding loud noise for fear of further deterioration of your hearing I think you may overdo it a little. Protection is a necessity against loud noise but overprotection against everyday ambient sounds may cause hyperacusis, which worsen reactive T...

So you've T since onset of a cold?

I don't have T. T has me. I'm being held hostage and tortured 24/7. Please shoot the hostage! Now!

Let's run around with air horns and spread some T. ;) If we can make it epidemic, there might be a funding, eventually. Or at least awareness.

I highly question that salt or sugar or any food can alter T. Unless it has a direct effect on the nervous system like for instance alcohol.

Going outdoors hiking in the forest. Or drinking wine. Sometimes a hot shower can help a little. It's tough.

@bill 112 , You're missing the point, most patients can't even afford 5k hearing aids, which are nothing but sound amplifiers. A student in India invented a $60 hearing aid. Now go and figure.

Sleep deprivation and loud venues make my T explode for hours and days. So I avoid the latter completely, and sleep eludes me in general.. there you go, T sucks. Wine is fine though.

Personally I'd say no, but you never know. It's been said, if T doesn't resolve in the first three months it's permanent. However, there had been some alleged miracles where T disappeared after years. So who knows..

Where else to go and talk to? T essentially doesn't exist in society, and physicians just shrug it off.

Healing or deterioration.

Actually it does. That's why I talk exclusively with strangers.

Let's say pharmaceutical companies do have apparently an incentive to sell pills -- for a lifetime but not a cure. That makes no sense whatsoever! Unless we're talking about diseases that are epidemic and life threatening. Last time I checked, T and hearing loss was not life threatening but...

So cured patients keep paying bills? Really?
