    Tinnitus Onset 2.0: Tracking Progress, Setbacks, and Hope

    March Wrap-Up The first half of March was very unstable. There were some better days in terms of intrusiveness, but also some especially intense spike days. Things became more stable in the second half of the month. During that period, I experienced significantly longer stretches of time...

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    If Lenire was able to reach the market, it would be an absolute shame if the “Susan Shore device” did not. I don’t expect it to be a miracle cure, but I do believe it will be reasonably more effective than Lenire for a significant number of people—almost certainly. Any progress in reducing...

    Research on the Origins of Hyperacusis and Potential Future Cochlear Imaging

    That is also a huge motivator for me, especially on days when spikes are bad. Given that we are already seeing small breakthroughs in research and planting the seeds for more through catalyst initiatives like Tinnitus Quest, I truly believe significant advances could be made in the next five to...

    Research on the Origins of Hyperacusis and Potential Future Cochlear Imaging

    This is incredible. The ability to “collect images of the cochlea in awake animals for the first time” is a major breakthrough. If this can be applied to humans, it could open up a world of possibilities for tinnitus and hyperacusis research. Once we can directly observe what is happening in...

    Introducing Tinnitus Quest

    That didn’t cross my mind, even though I’m also a French speaker. But I completely agree—this would be great! 💪 As mentioned above, I’d be happy to help with a possible French translation.

    Tinnitus, a Cochlear Phenomenon? Cochlear Origin of Tinnitus and Outer Hair Cell Motor Protein Prestin as a Biomarker for Tinnitus

    This is somewhat fascinating stuff. Question out of curiosity: is there already a glossary/thread/file that's kept up-to-date with the latest research paper regarding tinnitus/hyperacusis? When I read such articles, structured reference pages come to my imagination. For example, in this case...

    Game Over? Worsening Reactive Tinnitus and Pain Hyperacusis with Severe Headaches

    In many cases, it seems there is a difficult balance to find between too loud and too quiet. Overall, I think a calm and peaceful environment is best, especially during an acute phase. However, not all quiet environments are the same. For example, a walk in nature is usually beneficial for me...

    Introducing Tinnitus Quest

    @Hazel, thank you for your reply. I do not think your response was unnecessarily long, quite the opposite. It really helps to better understand the whole process, how things come together, and why they are often more complicated than they seem. I found the information about the challenges of...

For now, I have noticed that the Facebook and YouTube accounts have a very...

    Game Over? Worsening Reactive Tinnitus and Pain Hyperacusis with Severe Headaches

    I can't say I have had this serious symptom myself, far from it, as I don't have hyperacusis, but I have been reading a lot about the condition lately, experiencing a burdensome tinnitus spike for the last 2 months. Today, it's been screaming at me the whole day, covering the noise of office...
