I was looking back at some of the older posts in the New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing thread and this one, from @Padraigh Griffin, who sadly passed away recently, hurts the most.This device is NOTHING like Lenire. Lenire does not target any physiological cause of tinnitus. The University of Michigan device does.In the real world application of this device it will be possible to refine and change the parameters mid treatment to a set that may be better for you.
This option was not present in the clinical trial to my knowledge.
Trial and error can occur. Maybe with slight adjustments to the positioning of the electrical stimulus and sound timings the other patients might have achieved similar results.
Only time will tell. I'm Shore it will work
I really wish @Padraigh Griffin was still here with us. I would have loved to see him parse through these latest developments. In terms of optimism, there was no one as hopeful as him for the future. He strongly believed that we were on the precipice of a technological revolution, one where tinnitus would easily be solved. A big believer in Dr. Shore's device as well and was fully convinced that tinnitus is solely an electrical signaling problem.
I'm still in disbelief that he's gone, but wanted to give this individual some remembrance here. The man was a sage.
RIP.
