Thank you, @Hazel and @Markku, for the wonderful interview yesterday. I had a small idea. There are 41,000 members on this forum, though I realize not everyone visits on a monthly basis. However, the visibility of Tinnitus Quest on the forum seems quite low. There used to be a banner, but...

Yes it can improve a lot. The first months my dysacusis was about over everything. Nowadays it is just shower and church bells. Those sounds are distorted.

I never stopped Rivotril. You should not stop it if you take Deanxit. Rivotril counters an annoying side effect of Deanxit (Parkinson spasms).

I stopped for a few months but recently started again. The side effects are present but manageable.

I live in Ghent, where Brai3n is located. I tried tRNS and HD, but they did nothing for my tinnitus and cost a lot of money. Neuromodulation is complete nonsense for tinnitus. Medication helps me much more (Deanxit, Aripiprazole, Rivotril in low doses). Dr. De Ridder is doing his best, but I...

Something I haven't mentioned is that I seem to experience neuropathic pain in my brain after prolonged exposure to noise. It's not about the loudness, but rather the duration. If it were the loudness, I'd assume it was hyperacusis, but that doesn't seem to be the case. It feels like I can only...

@Hazel, how was the pitch with the young researchers on October 10th?

Jeez, if you can’t be supportive or positive, then don’t say anything. Tinnitus is not something people get by being “stupid”; it’s often the result of doing everyday things. Some people are just unlucky, while others seem to get away without any issues.

How will people then know Tinnitus Quest exists? It seems important for funding!

People want to know what they are investing in. They do this every day for all of their expenses. Maybe Tinnitus Quest should provide a list of individual investment cases so that people can choose to donate based on the specific causes they believe in.

Looks good but I miss the big banner for Tinnitus Quest. I don't even see any reference to Tinnitus Quest. I don't get that...

I take 0.5 mg of Rivotril (Clonazepam). I’ve tried going without it, but that doesn’t work for me. The tinnitus isn’t very loud, but I have mild dysacusis at certain frequencies, along with TTTS. However, after 14 months, I’m slowly habituating to it all. I live a normal life and protect my ears...

Hang in there, buddy. I can relate. I had a similar experience at a festival with 5,000 people, and I was basically the only one wearing earplugs. It definitely took me 3-4 months to recover from the hyperacusis. Now, I’ve found a balance with some medication. The tinnitus is still there, but...

I literally asked Brai3n what additional research needs to be done to make use of this information (like medication, etc.). Their response was simply, "more," which is disappointing. I have an appointment with Dr. De Ridder in November, and I’ll ask him for more specific information then.

Clear! Thanks.

I'm a bit surprised here. Forty years of research has been done, and Susan Shore is so close to a breakthrough. Dr. De Ridder has discovered the "switch" that toggles tinnitus on and off. The TU Delft device is in development, and the Lenire device was an experimental step forward. It seems...

Thanks, @Hazel. I was recently at the Brai3n office in Belgium, where Dr. De Ridder works, among others. One of the board members mentioned that they would need €10 million to create a device like Lenire, but of course, a better one. A few hundred thousand wouldn’t be enough—we really need to...

Is there a way to find out how much funding Tinnitus Quest has received? I’m interested in contributing, but I would also like to have some insight into the nonprofit’s growth potential.

The Belgian newspapers do not mention that. They wrote that Lenire sometimes cures tinnitus. Today, this is all over the papers and radio.

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and share my story. Life was good until May 2023, when I ended a relationship that had drained a lot of my energy. Although I felt more relaxed afterward, I struggled with light depression. On June 9th...
