@Hazel best wishes! And I hope a fast and complete recovery to your mother! I hope/wish there was some news concerning tinnitus research... Looking forward to hearing more about the conference.

Never would have thought that Skynet is just curing tinnitus...

And hyperacusis (if there was any)?

Your words (and no tinnitus) in God's ears!

And here I just have to add: "ME TOO!"

I just explained the posted criteria 1:1! Of course I also hope that atonal tinnitus is also treatable by Lenire. BUT nearly every sound therapy defines that noises (knocking, scratching, buzzing, whooshing...) and high pitched sounds (like in two-digit kHz frequencies) are not typical "tonal...

Easy: To be part of the experiment you must not have more than 80 dB hearing loss in the frequency range from 250 Hz-8 kHz, and not more than 40 dB hearing loss in the frequency range of 250 Hz-1 kHz, otherwise you can't be part of it. Your tinnitus must be maskable in the frequency range of...

I believe even if everything goes "sooper dooper" that not before 2023.

With very very mild, not really noticeable tinnitus since 2008, and severe tinnitus since 2017, I'm quite a "newbie" but I think it's only normal that you get frustrated by "possible cures" which are for many years under development and then getting smashed to pieces in the final stages. Even...

short summary: All the "wonderpills" of auris medical have failed or have a very high possibility to fail....

It would be nice to ask Dr. Rauschecker if there has been noteworthy progress in his work since your podcast interview. Probably not enough time has passed for it to have progressed. It would also be interesting to find out if ongoing research remains, which tries to locate and/or fix chronic...

Sad but maybe true! Depending on how much the FrequencyTx treatment will cost, insurance companies will fight. However if you bring up a psychological attest declaring that "you suffer" they probably won't be able to refuse payment but will cancel your insurance at next possible date. Would...

I'm sure that there is some Neuromod-like influence on tinnitus, but I also highly doubt that Dr. Shore will be the first to hit the market... Science and research by universities is essentially important, but mostly slow...

Some consonants like "f","s","t" have high frequency spectrum! However it doesn't explain why people with good audiometry have trouble in background noise or in special hearing situations (...echoing rooms)! Some theories speculate that it's not only high frequency hair cells, but also synapses...

Holy crap! I just wanted to post that the audiometry and word scores stuff is not officially announced, but you can read the whole story on the Business Wire website. So.... It really doesn't look bad right now! So fellow tinnitus sufferers, let's hope and pray for Frequency Therapeutics...

Based on my theory: If hyperacusis is "inaudible tinnitus" (because brain filters are working) resulting from hyperactive nerve cells, which again result from hearing damage (lost hair cells, synapses) then restoring hearing and desynchronizing nerves would of course heal hyperacusis. However...

It may be otoprotective to a certain (not really relevant) degree but not enough for statistical relevance. Smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol are separately and in combination also bad for your blood vessels and certainly ototoxic, but if they are statistically relevant reasons for...

Sorry but it's incredible to see all kinds of bullshit researchers are able to make up...

I think it should be possible. As said before there are at least 3 possible ways to stop our symptoms. It's only my personal theory but i think that hyperacusis has similar underlying structure problems as tinnitus. I think if you have hyperacusis that certain nerves are hyperactive as if they...

I must say again that Dr. Josef Rauschecker's Theory of Tinnitus is the most plausible one to me. I think loud tinnitus (not talking about tinnitus that you can only hear if you concentrate very hard when it's silent) has always to do with - at least minimally - damage to hearing periphery...

I'm also convinced that regeneration of periphery is possible. The big question is if and how regenerated periphery works... It's true that progress seems to be very slow but on the other hand we have to understand that all the procedures must be safe. If Frequency Therapeutics would cause a...

It's hard to say who is going to be the first with relevant success rates. Companies from the US are often "making more noise" during the developments. European companies are often more unremarkable, but sometimes hit the market with a big bang. Doesn't matter who is the first. In the end...

everybody should take a minute and vote at least 1 time!

I think it's impossible to interpret anything or make conclusions right now. Everything is possible. Worst case is that nothing has improved and happened but they still try if there are any long time effects... I remember I have read that the criteria to be participant of the trials are very...

I gotta say I'm, at least a bit, a fan of Liberman's Hidden Hearing Loss Theory which is pointing out that loss of synapses causes hearing loss which could only be measured under distinct conditions (worse speech, especially speech in noise understanding ability...). Liberman also points out...

...our biggest hope to get FX-322 on the market soon is that the regeneration of OHC's and IHC's really works (in a functional way and on the right spots) and on the other hand that our brains' neuroplasticity takes place fast enough and in the right way. I'm pretty sure the regeneration of...
