Lol....yeah, been dealing blackjack on this cruise for 3 yrs....should have my "sea legs" by now. Researched the side effects and according to the Mayo Clinic lipoflavonoids and B-complex supplements can cause itching and rash. Guess I'm going to have to deal with this damn ringing...:-(@Tammy - It does not seem like Lipo-Flavonoid Plus would cause a rash but you never know with allergies. I have a big bottle of 500 to "eat". I did use some of them up, but never any rash. I would get somewhat nauseous on a cruise also.
Don't feel bad Demi, I did the same thing, I think I had like 5 bottles.....I took 3 bottles of lipoflavonoids and it didn't seem to do anything for me. also stupid me forgot to save the receipts, so I can't even get my money back!
Cull, so happy that they are working for you. I hope your good days continue!!!!Thought i should chime in. I started taking lipos about ten days ago, recommended by my ent. He said he had about half his patients have positive results and a decent number who had their t go away. ( dont know if it was the lipo) After about ten days I have noticed increasing instances of fleeting t. From my onset I had very loud T and over time, it went down a bit, while this was happening I had a lot of fleeting t , over 20 a day and as my t died down , my fleeting t lessened to almost nothing. The last few weeks I remember only a handful of instances. Since i started the liposflavinoids, i have had an increase in fleeting T, and my t is changing again. I have more days where either dont hear the high pitched t, and it is a much less intrusive and annoying. I am habituating but that is not whats going on, my t is changing so I will continue to take them and see what happens.
They might as well make a super pill with every vitamin and mineral, throw in some magnesium, ginkgo, green tea, picamilon, DHEA, L-theanine, St Johns Wart, Vinpocetine and every other supplement that supposedly cures T. Then add in a copy of Thomas Coleman's Tinnitus Miracle to read while you down them all.

Are they still working for you?
Hey matt. Last time I took one was when I wrote this. I wanted to see ifit was inmy head or itactually was doing something. Since I stopped I have not had any fleeting
t. Which I don't know if it has anything to do with the lipos. I'll start taking them again and I'll update in 2weeks or so
My step father swears by the Lipoflavs and something called fluoracal for his--I tried the Lipoflavs--did nothing for me. Very expensive too. Maybe somethings will work for one but not another. I'm sure my stepdad got his T from shooting--he's an avid re-enactor --western and civil war. My mom says he'll never habituate because he keeps shooting. I didn't have any noise injury--I just woke up with it one morning--age related HF hearing loss.
Fleeting T. Well does your T ever get really loud for like 15 seconds sometimes longer, and it seems like your hearing is dulled for a bit. Scary at first but many people get it i guess.My step father swears by the Lipoflavs and something called fluoracal for his--I tried the Lipoflavs--did nothing for me. Very expensive too.

Cullen--what is 'fleeting t'?
Thanks.

That's what fleeting T is? I don't mean to steer the thread away from the topic, but are doctors/researchers even aware of all these anecdotal similarities in T symptoms and experiences? I'm guessing they are, but sometimes I wonder. My top-rated audiologist didn't seem all that on top of it.
Do you mind if I ask how you got yours, or how you think you got yours?
save your money, do the pharmicists who recommend have tinnitus?Anybody try this for their tinnitus. Seems like it's helping me, taking double dosage for 5 days. Pharmicist at Wal-Mart says they sell a lot of it, did not know the success rate on it.
So that's what this is. I had no idea. It happens to me quite a lot. I got used to itFleeting T. Well does your T ever get really loud for like 15 seconds sometimes longer, and it seems like your hearing is dulled for a bit. Scary at first but many people get it i guess.
So what is the general opinion on the effectiveness of lipoflavonoids? Do they work? How long does it take before results happen? Anyone besides me taking them? Medical advice on taking them? My ENT kinda just sent me home with them and said "hope this works".

I was (and still secretly am) interested in trying lipoflavinoids -- I asked my neurologist about it and he said he thinks it's a waste of time/money (placebo effect). Just remember everything you read on their site you have to taken with a grain of salt because of the bias! So glad this post exists.
For the record though, I have heard mixed reviews from people I know that currently take it.
