    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Thanks for your reply. When they say: The complete date set from all the Clinical Trials is absolutely enourmous This seems honest justification? Or are they not confident on the peer review results and are just postponing?

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    I would be more comfortable if I could read a peer review publication before my appointment. Any idea when will the peer review be published? One month? One year?

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Agree. Tried to correct my post but is not possible to edit it anymore. One thing we all can agree is that is relatively safe to say that Lenire does not aggravate tinnitus. Allan1967 was the only person stating that Lenire increased his tinnitus. But that seems to be a very specific...

    Correlation Between Tinnitus and Eye Floaters?

    It seems floaters are more likely to occur on myopic people... There are also laser treatments for floaters considered to be safe but at the same time with a low rate of success.

    Correlation Between Tinnitus and Eye Floaters?

    I understand your point of view. It is likely to be the justification for a considerable part of the threads we see on the forum. Basically, with Tinnitus our brain becomes ultra-sensitive on a permanent alert state. However, in my case, the onset of floaters was sudden. I was on the beach with...

    Correlation Between Tinnitus and Eye Floaters?

    Is there any evidence stating a correlation between tinnitus and eye floaters? I had my first episode of floaters this Saturday. I am 42 years old with some myopia. There are several threads on Tinnitus Talk regarding people suffering from both floaters and tinnitus. I wonder if it is just a...

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    @Cityjohn Your audiogram is hard to understand. Where is the y-axis scale? But if I understood right, you have 60 db loss at 2.75khz and 4.75khz. That's quite a lot and it should justify your tinnitus. What exactly do you mean with: 'The consideration of risks is that I know I can cure my...

    Can Noise-Induced Hearing Loss Cause Pulsatile Tinnitus?

    Hello, A stupid question... does anyone with noise-induced hearing loss has Pulsatile Tinnitus? On my mind, Pulsatile Tinnitus should always be justified by some kind of venous cause, Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension or muscular issue but not by hair cell damage. Am I wrong?
