Many of us are eagerly waiting to see when the FDA will approve the Susan Shore device—assuming Auricle has even submitted it for approval. Who knows? It might be sitting on a shelf somewhere, with no urgency to move it forward. One thing we can do (for those of us in the U.S.) is contact our...

I saw Dr. Djalilian in person in late August, and he put me on his Migraine Trigger Avoidance Diet, which I started on September 1. I'm also taking most of the supplements he recommended. My tinnitus follows a weekly pattern, fluctuating from a moderate to sometimes severe, very annoying tonal...

I live in Southern California, so I was able to see Dr. Djalilian in late August for just a $35 copay. I have moderate hearing loss and variable tinnitus in my left ear due to a one-time gunshot exposure in 1986. Over the years, it has worsened, especially since I’m a musician. It now...

I’ve been following this thread for a couple of years now, but could someone tell me if there is positive proof that Auricle has actually submitted the medical device for FDA approval, or is that just speculation? Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like there are any resources (databases)...

Apparently Susan Shore is hosting a Zoom Webinar on June 11 titled “Harnessing brain plasticity to treat tinnitus research.” I’m registered to attend. It will be interesting to see if she discusses Auricle and the current status of seeking FDA approval. → https://hearinghealthfoundation.org/webinar

Does anyone know anybody that was in one of the two human trials? If 100 people went through the trials and at least 50% had a reduction in the loudness of their tinnitus, I’m just curious why we never see posts from any of the other participants? I know there was @linearb who posted a year or...

Dr. Shore has been working on this potential treatment for 25 years and during that time there have been many articles online and in medical journals about her efforts. She sent out an email to her subscribers on her progress approximately 6 months ago. Auricle Inc knows there are thousands...

The US Government spends a billion a year on US Veterans claims for tinnitus. The second the first human trial results looked promising, they should have been partnering up with UoM and providing funding for a 1000 person trial! If I was a veteran with severe quality of life diminishing...

Yes, I should. I’ve always wondered why Veterans’ associations in the US, and there must be many, have never campaigned aggressively for more funding for tinnitus research? If I had severe intrusive tinnitus that resulted from serving my country, I’d be raising bloody hell with my Senators and...

I’m glad someone asked this question and the answer truly shows how uncaring, incompetent, and ineffective our federal government is, especially the the US Veterans Administration! One billion a year spent on tinnitus claims and along comes the first viable treatment for tinnitus in the history...

Darn! 400 participants would have given us much more insight into the effectiveness of the treatment. Damn COVID-19! Thanks for the information!

I’m also optimistic that this is finally the breakthrough we’ve been waiting for and that Dr Shore’s device will help millions of tinnitus sufferers to some degree. It’s also exciting that other tinnitus researchers could piggyback on her findings and fine tune it making it even more effective...

I have read most of the recent pages on this thread but didn’t see this topic discussed. Does anybody have any knowledge or insight if Dr. Shore’s device will be effective for those that have difficulty matching the frequency of their tinnitus because it’s above 8 kHz and they also have...

Thanks for the tip blamingeverything! I read online that it is widely prescribed for insomnia instead of depression and due to its short half-life, not much of a chance on becoming dependent. Does it reduce your tinnitus severity like Klonopin? I'm trying to stay away from anything that...

Well I last took a 0.5 mg dose of Klonopin on Monday night and the tinnitus was a mild 4-5 all week. This morning the Klonopin must have worn off as the tinnitus is back to the more intense open hose bib sound which I subjectively rate a 7-8 at best. I actually was on a Zoom call last week with...

I just went 5 days - 123 hours - of low mild hissing tinnitus of a 4-5 level (which I have habituated to and can ignore) after taking one 0.5 mg Klonopin pill ast Monday night June 6 at 11 pm. I had a great 5 days of relatively low manageable tinnitus and a normal lifestyle. All day yesterday...

I decided to cut the 0.5 mg doses of Klonopin into half. On Monday night (May 23) I took 0.25 mg as I was having trouble sleeping. I ended up sleeping well and the next day the tinnitus had reduced to a mild hissing just like before. Several days went by with the lower volume less bothersome...

I’m a 63-year-old musician with left ear only tinnitus originally resulting from a onetime gunshot exposure when I was 26. My right ear is fine. I had a really bad flare up in 2004 playing one gig with a loud drummer and it caused me to stop playing music for over a year. The last 10 years have...

I’m 63 and a musician. After 15 years of total habituation from left ear tinnitus originally due to one time gunshot exposure when I was 26, my tinnitus has returned louder then ever after recording some vocals with headphones two months ago. It’s been a nightmare the past month (the worst...

So I was exposed to the gunshot noise back in 1986 when I was 27 which damaged my left ear. Around 1990, I started hearing a faint ringing in that ear but it was pretty unobtrusive. I didn't get really bad tinnitus in that left ear though until 2004 when I played a gig with a very loud drummer...

After a 15-year period of complete habituation to my left ear tinnitus (caused by a one time gun shot noise exposure when I was 26), my tinnitus has returned to my left ear. I’m a singer/songwriter and do a lot of home recording, sometimes having to use headphones to record vocals so there is no...
