    I have not no. Doctors where I live just disregard this and don't even introduce any sort of alternative or experimental treatments. Very true...

    So I just recently started working, sadly to get to work I have to do a commute of about 1h 30min of which about 40 ~ 50 minutes is spent on buses. In your opinion, how bad is this for a serious tinnitus sufferer? My tinnitus seems to be getting louder once again and I am wondering if it has...

    Extreme Hyperacusis and Tinnitus Have Improved Over the Past 2.5 Years

    First-Time Tinnitus from Toilet Seat Crash

    If I were you I'd take it as a huge victory that you improved in a very short window of time and I'd try to move on as soon as possible. All I've had during my more than 3 years of tinnitus is a downfall of gradually getting worse and worse with time.

    An Update: Emerging Drugs for Tinnitus

    In a way yes, because there will be more demand (market wise) to find a cure, however we are still limited by things like you know... physics, technological advancements etc. So even if everyone got tinnitus tomorrow that wouldn't guarantee a cure anytime soon.

    Can I Safely Take Cloxazolam Every Once in a While to Help with Sleep?

    Yeah that's the issue. My doctor won't prescribe it, when I gave him a list of potential meds that could help, he straight up said they wouldn't do anything which is a lie. I have taken Clonazepam before and it does help with the tinnitus. It reduced it a bit.

    Can I Safely Take Cloxazolam Every Once in a While to Help with Sleep?

    I have gone through quite a few threads about benzos but first off, every person reacts to them differently and also not every benzo is the same... And when it comes to Cloxazolam there are no threads on it so I am not sure what to do. I wish I could get Clonazepam (Klonopin) but I can't.

    Can I Safely Take Cloxazolam Every Once in a While to Help with Sleep?

    Damn I really needed some advice :( From what I researched, tinnitus does not appear to be a side effect of this drug, it has a long half life, however it's still classified as a benzo so I am reluctant to take it. I am in really bad shape though so I might not have a choice.
