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

    i have written on it on this thread i think. Earphones and lots of loud music and producing/mixing long hours took me there. 4-5 months later the start of my sensitivity pain i got to the clinic, just for the heck of it and cause some good reviews here(maybe this thread). After the clinic it was...

    Interstellar The Movie

    Dune....whoa, you really have to be major space nerd to love that movie :blackalien: (y)I liked it of course, not because of the "major space nerd" part, i'm maybe a little, but for being a huge Lynch fan. Just surprised that someone loved it. Interstellar, in my book goes to the same category...

    Interstellar The Movie

    Was Ok, not going to watch it again in my life time tho. And I love cosmic stuff; nothing beats Kubric's and Scott's epic movies. Imho. I did not get why they sent the main character to save the human race. It was obvious that he can jeopardy the mission with his ignorant mindset. Visually the...

    Piracetam and Choline + Phospholipids

    Also you might try coluracetam, in the future. No headaches for me so far, but im taking it once/twice per week. Per ammount is 5 mg sublingually. I prefer this to noopept(1000-5000 times stronger piracetam). They both give me motivation and cognitive enhancement, but coluracetam gives this...

    Antidepressants and Hyperacusis

    Depression. Yes i know about hippocampal growth. AD only grows about 2% of it, luckily we NSI-189 novel molecule in human trials going, to have the opportunity to expand that growth about 10 times. My hippo is hungry!;)

    Antidepressants and Hyperacusis

    my 2 cents- i have years of experience with Cymbalta. In fact, it helped me the first time so i haven't tried anything else. I tapered it off also quite easily, after 2,5 years of 30mg of use. Can't quit cold turkey though. At the time i did not develope H, after i quit C and had some acoustic...

    Autifony Therapeutics Phase II Study for AUT00063, for the Treatment of Hearing Loss and Tinnitus

    Depression is not curable. Antidepressants only relieve the symptoms. Usually you have to go back to them within two years. I lasted one at most. Novel antidepressants are coming like neural stem NSI-189, they are in human trials like many novel hearing treatments. They may not be the cure but...

    AM-101 TACTT1 Results Released

    Most interesting indeed. I already invested in stem cell company which has grown 164% in the last 12 months. Novel medicine seems the place to be in nowadays. If there were at least one real patient we knew about, that has gotten excellent results with AM101, this would have it's own topic. Many...

    Ear Pain Triggered by Sound, Need Help!

    This is most interesting information indeed. It seems that i can't tolerate longer periods i.e. 30 min of music listening, even at the normal volumes. But everyday sounds are ok, by now and very short louder sounds don't hurt. I guess i really have to find a good audiogist and get myself diagnosed.

    Inner Ear Hair Cell Regeneration — Maybe We Can Know More

    I wonder why there is no feedback.iirc someone asked them that hundreds of patients have gotten hearing treatment at HOPE. At least Dr.Wilden with his LLLT therapy measures the hearing before and after, do the HOPE have any improvement to show the patients? It costs ten time more.

    My Introduction...

    http://www.thomann.de/gb/millenium_ms2002.htm this will hold the pen nicely but you have to sit stationary, its a big minus and actually might bring big plus to the plugs. I mean if one uses the plugs more, due the convience, then they could be more effective? Smt to think about, good mind fuel.

    My Introduction...

    No T, yes hyperacusis ear pain. Stronger ie. not hurting when bird sing, same pen. Its more effective than those ear plug ones and cheaper too at least from Dr. Wilden.
