If you look up Lou Reed - Metal Machine Music, he has something similar to Tinnitus Mix. I remember someone claiming some similar sounds took their tinnitus away. I wonder what and how the brain interprets these sounds. Maybe using mindfulness meditation while listening to these sounds could...

I really hope so. Because it never used to be this loud before. I’ve started doing nasal rinses because I feel like my Eustachian tubes may be messed up due to all the flying and Valsava maneuvers I have done. Do you think the Susan Shore device could help this kind of tinnitus?

Well this is interesting... → A Resonant Circuit Involving the Vestibule and Cochlea Base Could Cause Extremely Low-Frequency Tinnitus, also Called “The Hum” or “Taos Hum”

I wanted to ask a general question about the low hum tinnitus. It seems like it’s been a bit more prominent now since I got a sinus infection and cold last year. Being in a room with the ceiling fan used to mask it, but not anymore. I used to be able to clear my ears using the Valsalva maneuver...

This right here is key. How it’s delivered.

I honestly don’t think you need to have noise exposure to have tinnitus. The use of daily chemicals, medicines, and even fumes can lead to neural issues. Look at some of the safety labels for chemicals we might use daily, or just paint fumes! Some state being able to cause neural issues which...

Does any one get micro spikes after loud short event? Let’s say a restaurant? Or could it be SBUTTs? Have sbutts lead to anything permanent?

I agree. Nerve repair should be on higher on the list of things to investigate rather than hearing repair. Not saying hearing restoration wouldn’t be nice but I’ve been noticing more and more articles on nerve repair discussion and brain trimming than anything else.

What are these random spikes!? Sometimes they happen for no reason.. even with hearing protection on

Today just sucks. I hate having this. So much info about research and studies all this information is overwhelming and I just can’t today :(

I wanted to know how you've been doing with the fleeting episodes? Have they come back?

Explain dimmed? Like it’s dampened?

Do you think this could be a form of hyperacusis?

I have this same feeling after my recent sinus infection. My left ear always feels exactly like yours. Has it gotten any better? I’ve had this feeling since February of this year. Sometimes my ear drum flutters when I move my jaw. My ENT thinks it could be TMJ related. What exactly does your...

Cefdinir plagued my hyperacusis and aural feeling in my left ear after taking it. So just because it's not listed as ototoxic, doesn't mean it couldn't affect anyone any different. I took Cefdinir for my sinus infection and I was getting excruciating ear pain after taking it. I'm letting you...

How often do you get these fleeting episodes? Did something happen to cause them? Loud noise exposure? Medication?

Did you end up using the ointment in your eye? Did you have any adverse effects?

Have you tried taking Tongkat Ali and did it have any effect on your tinnitus?

What is Kestine?

This is how I felt when I took it. What helped me combat the majority of the symptoms were exercise and working out. Even though I was on it for 14 days, it still had somewhat of an effect for roughly a month for me to get over.

Which Magnesium type should I take?

Thanks. Some of the reviews here are a bit scary about Cefdinir: https://www.drugs.com/comments/cefdinir/for-sinusitis.html it doesn’t have any good ratings which scare me, some also suggest taking yogurt and/or eating probiotics like you suggested. I don’t know about the NAC though.

Is Cefdinir safe to take? My doctor gave me some to take due to a sinus infection I supposedly have.

Has anyone else tried Ashwagandha before? I’ve been under lots of anxiety and stress as of lately.

I know this post is old but do you still take pre-workout supplements or any additional pump nitric oxide when you work out? Currently I’m taking these: Bucked Up Pre-Workout PESCience High Volume For vitamins: Orange TRIad Daily Multivitamin

Fuck Prednisone. I took it for 14 days following a work injury I had in my left ear. I’ve since been 3 weeks off the Prednisone and I’m experiencing the worst (possibly permanent) spike there is. I’m not sure how long the effects of taking steroids last in the body but my right ear has gotten...

I thought about doing Testosterone Replacement Therapy but kinda scared of the effects it could have on my tinnitus since I’ve had it since I was 13. My testosterone levels were low according to my doctor and he thinks I would benefit from this.

Has anyone tried emailing Dr. Josef Rauschecker? First time I saw his video I cried in hopes, he sounded like he was so sure he could tackle this on going issue. I'm not the only one who has had this for many years.

Isn’t the counter sound outside the hearing range? I use mine all the time and haven’t noticed an increase in my T or any adverse effect. I keep my volume low though because of the cancellation effect.

I think this form of magnesium is probably best, which is the glycinate form. Others on this forum can def chime in and help out. I take this from and feel it’s best abosorbed in the body.

Yeah I feel the same. Since I have T I’ve been super active almost always.

I used to feel super bloated and heavy when I used to eat meat and dairy for years, until one day I decided to stop and one thing at a time. All of sudden my bloating stopped when I switched to a plant based diet and I feel so much better. My head feels lighter and I’m always feeling refreshed...

@hans799. I’ve read a report once (forgot where though) that creatine could be beneficial for Tinnitus and inclusive with the excersize as well. I know for one when I do work out, my T does slightly go up(maybe due to inflammation) then after I take a cold bath to cool things down and later on...

@fishbone. What kind of work out routine you do? I’m doing low weights and high reps at the moment to properly learn the techniques. Once I feel comfortable I think I might up my lift weight.

Awesome find!!! Very interesting article!!!

This is a good thread. I think there should be more extensive information related to this topic as majority of the users here probably acquaint with. Dr. Josef Rauschecker believes that Tinnitus could be cured or possibly turned off with the use of certain medication or stimulation. He has an...

No I haven’t ever used it. My first question was to make one if anyone ever had the circuit diagram.

Each component should have specific data sheets attached to them, not any diode or "laser" would do. As long as I know the power requirements and currents, the outputs "should" replicate the study. This is all pre-calculated of course and done with a significant number of testing using my...

Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated.

Thanks. I’ll give it a try. I heard that creatine can help with T? Have you heard of this?

Just wanted to see how many weight lifters are there here and what supplements they take. I’m currently on a multi-vitamin and a creatine supplement: BodyTech Creatine and Glutamine w Beta Al - Unflavored (10.7 Oz Powder) and this: Controlled Labs Orange Triad: Multivitamin, Joint, Digestion...

If someone can provide the details of the circuit and or power requirements for the LLLT I could probably build one.

I am.

I am an Electrical Engineer.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigella_sativa Bit more info on where Black Seed oil comes from. Chemistry: Nigella sativa oil contains conjugated linoleic (18:2) acid, thymoquinone, nigellone (dithymoquinone),[12] melanthin, nigilline, and trans-anethole.[6]

Translation would be good for those who do not speak Dutch.

This may not have anything to do with curing Tinnitus but the person who is conducting the study is a Tinnitus researcher. I have emailed him and no response yet in relationship to this study, he maybe part of the team up in Dallas. I do believe that this study can further help with a better...

OK!

Seems like there is a clinical trial being done at UTD in Dallas, TX for VNS. I'm only 4 hours away. Anyone in TX can and should sign up. https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03143842?recrs=a&cond=Tinnitus&cntry1=NA%3AUS&state1=NA%3AUS%3ATX&rank=1

Article that explain a bit more detail about Lithium. Nice thing is that there are reference backing up to each statement. https://selfhacked.com/blog/the-benefits-of-lithium/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3172812/#!po=6.47059 Neuroprotective action of lithium in disorders of...

Thanks for the explanation makes things a bit more clearly now. I'm still learning all of this and it's great that you have the time to teach us this, and also just to add I'm not concerned if the thread drifts a bit off topic (unlike some people who are picky about that) I believe the more...

So @HomeoHebbian are we trying to synchronize with our firing neurons in our brains to somewhat the frequency of our Tinnitus to reduce it? Or basically reduce the firing activity? I remember reading this on a different study that they calculated that the firing within our neural network was...

Has anyone tried to contact Dr. Rauschecker and maybe invite him to the Forum? I think it would be a good idea to get the directors involved with him since he is working with Tinnitus and maybe he can get some more insight on "us" and possible feedback he could use on his study. I know I...

I'm curious as well. I have tried making different tones using not just sine waves but I've created "Notched" noise with 10Hz AM on top, makes it sound like a old style steam train passing by if you generate it with white noise.

Sounds like the nerves are some treated like a muscle? And once it has memory, it does not loose it, which is what I am getting from this article. I could be wrong.

Don't think so, I've been playing mine ARCN through my laptop speakers on super low volume and basically for me it just masks the noise (I probably need to recheck my T Tone again). I don't use headphones at all anymore.

Yeah this is what I meant to say, sorry lol. I don't think the quantity or the amount of dopamine/serotonin matters, I believe it's how he uses them to possible develop some new drug treatments. I also believe he is not also just working on T, from what I have been reading on his research papers...

That is what we hope. I have a feeling he will come up with a drug first to maybe suppress T or lower it, and that will buy some time for other researchers to maybe ultimately find a cure to eliminate it. Until then, I guess we have to wait.
