    Learning to Live with Tinnitus

    Well unfortunately it's the truth isn't it? Nice to see you have joined Tinnitus talk Dr Nagler. For some reason the term 'rats deserting a sinking ship' springs to mind. Kind of predictable though given that Yuku is virtually dead these days and TT is growing and growing. No audience means...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    Thanks Mick1987 I'm sure you are right. I'm being abit dramatic but some days it feels like I have the sword of Damocles hanging over me when I think about the inevitable problems I'm going to have falling asleep. The noise just haunts me but I haven't even had this a year yet so I'm sure I will...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    I'm more then happy to debate something but the tone of your posts Tenna indicate you are far more interested in petty nik picking and point scoring. That is completely irrelevant to me. I call it how I see it and I stand by what I said. I make no apologies for that. By respect I meant...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    Apology accepted Mick1987 no hard feelings. I apologize to you as well if my posts came across to you as only people with severe Tinnitus care about it thus belittling and causing offense. That was certainly not my attention and I didn't think that they gave that impression when I wrote them but...

    Valentin this is a good point. She never mentioned this when I met her though but she explained that the vibration from all the noises in her head disturbs her the most rather then the noises themselves.

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    Tenna take a deep breath and calm down okay? I'm sorry that you are unable to understand certain things I write but like I said before let's just agree to disagree and not argue. Attempting to nit pick to score points isn't going to us anywhere. I never said I didn't like what you wrote I don't...

    She has hearing loss Tenna but not significant according to her. She could understand what I was saying but the vibration of her noises seems to affect her the most. I didn't say she could barely hear her own voice I said she struggles and that was what she told me. There is an obvious...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    Excuse me do not put words in my mouth. I never said they were lying nor did I ever imply that once anyone get's severe Tinnitus it's impossible to habituate to it. I actually explained this point to you in one of my previous comments (No.36) on this thread. Since you either didn't bother...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    @Misery yes she reconstructed what her Tinnitus sounds like through someone medical although off the top of my head I can't remember where and who. What I heard is exactly what she hears each day and let me tell you it was horrific. Actually put mine into perspective as before I would of...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    To be honest mick187 I think severe Tinnitus needs to be experienced before anyone can make a judgement. As I said in my previous comment this person had about 7 different noises in her head that were so loud I think I would end it if I had to deal with that and no sleep. At least you could...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    @mick1987 There is a huge difference between a noise that you can get relief from via everyday sounds or masking and sleep compared to a noise which drowns out a noisy packed sports stadium or can be heard even when standing next to a very loud giant speaker at a club. The latter cannot be...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    Tenna although I don't believe it is a misinterpretation let's just agree to disagree on the subject and not have an argument. You think what Dan wrote was in your words 'evil'. I think that was colossal overreaction to his comment but you don't so we can go back and forth back and forth etc...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    I'm so sorry to hear that Gary I truly am. It was for people like you why I wrote what I did in support of Dan. Sadly people with more tolerable Tinnitus do not understand those with severe forms of it. I have to be honest if I had not met this person earlier this year and heard her Tinnitus...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    Hi Dan, I met her through a friend of a friend who has also Tinnitus. I wanted to ask her some questions and just speak to someone who knew what I was going through. I really thought I had it bad before but after meeting her it definitely put mines in perspective. I can definitely synmpathise...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    Cancer is something I have very direct experience of with friends and family in my life Tenna so let's not try to turn this into some kind of contest here. It was specifically lung cancer that was mentioned by the OP and I simply addressed that point as an example of how some people could feel...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    I come from a family of medical professionals Tenna and I can tell you from experience that people can live quite decent lives with just one lung compared to those crippled by Tinnitus. Also lung cancer can be successfully treated without the organ being removed in more and more cases these...

    I'll Take Tinnitus, Thank You.

    It's unfortunate that many people do not seem to be aware of the extreme differences in people's Tinnitus. The experience is quite different if what you have is so loud it easily drowns out a noisy stadium or loud club or bar etc. I myself have more tolerable Tinnitus where I can actually...

    Why Do We Accept That HL and Tinnitus Are the 3rd Most Prevalent Chronic Diseases in the World?

    Just for the record for those new to this story Dana White actually confirmed that he still has Tinnitus after this procedure. This topic has already been discussed in another thread earlier this year. Meniere's Disease “100 percent cured” after stem cell procedure in Germany? | Tinnitus Talk...

    Learning to Live with Tinnitus

    No I don't, nor do I agree with plucking up random statistics out of thin air. I just don't appreciate you trivialising people's suffering and essentially blaming them for somehow not fixing themselves because of their own inadequacies. You are oversimplifying this whole thing through your...

    Learning to Live with Tinnitus

    I'm sorry but I don't agree with this at all. People can't just 'not worry' about something because they choose to it's not as simple as that. Everyone's Tinnitus is different as well. Some can have just a single sound in one ear that they can only hear in quiet times while others can have...

    Free of Tinnitus. Or Winning the Lottery?

    Assuming if taking the money meant having tinnitus until I die then without a shadow of a doubt I would choose to have silence again! There is just no comparison.

    Learning to Live with Tinnitus

    This post is even stranger I mean who has the volume or power button to their Tinnitus and stress levels? if it was this easy then everything in life would simply be judge 'hey don't worry it's all fine' and everything would be easily solved. Since life doesn't work this way for the majority...

    Learning to Live with Tinnitus

    No offense but according to what you have under your name you have only had Tinnitus since 2012 so you hardly as a veteran do you? The way you seem to trivialise someones suffering in a number of posts is eerily familiar of the asinine tone of that idiot Dr Stephen Nagler and his brain dead...

    How Is It Actually Going For ATA?

    Hi Karl, yes I have read that and it helped me come to the conclusion that those involved with the ATA have no real interest in curing anything but rather finding something that will provide a regular income stream. Had they made these tones for free download then I might have seen this...

    Safe volume to listen to music again?

    Since I got Tinnitus earlier this year from a course of Antibiotics I have generally avoided listening to music to prevent any further damage to my ears. However I think things have finally stabilised so I want to go back to listening to my MP3 player again. However I seem to get conflicted...

    How Is It Actually Going For ATA?

    Hello Jazz and thank you for your nice friendly post! I absolutely hear what you are saying and would certainly be inclined to agree with you had the ATA been formed in the last 5 years or so. However they are over 4 decades old now and it just isn't good enough to put it lightly. Now I see...

    How Is It Actually Going For ATA?

    Firstly I want to say thank you to the creators for making such a wonderful Tinnitus forum. By far the best on the Internet! Today I joined that awful Yuku forum this morning to highlight a few points about the ATA and correct an error that was made. I haven't done so on Tinnitus talk yet...

    Regenokine (Orthokine) Treatment: Meniere's Disease “100 Percent Cured” in Germany?

    This looks like it has great potential! Why hasn't the ATA or BTA even bothered investigating this and asking Dana white or that place in Germany all about it?

    Amazing site!

    Been a lurker for a while but finally decided to join this amazing place! I'm sad I have Tinnitus but am glad there are so many smart nice people here who seem very informed about so many subjects. I'm still going through all the threads and wow there is so much to digest! This place is much...
