@JohnAdams you need to create an unbiased thread about the role curcumin plays in cochlear hair cell regeneration
and ask users to post there result over the course of 6 months.

Example the science behind it in the thread and don't jump to a euphoric conclusion unless you can prove it!

It's all about hypothesis testing, the way you are going about this is very questionable.

I haven't claimed that curcumin will definitely regrow hair cells. I merely provided ample evidence that curcumin is very chemically similar to the drug they are using that has regrown hair cells.

Curcumin has been shown to be safe at the dosage I am taking, for the duration that I am going to take it.

It has been shown to be beneficial for other things, like oxidative stress.

If anyone else wants to try it, that's their prerogative.

I am doing it.

My tinnitus has seemed to change, fluctuate more. Since I started this a week ago. It is still there, however.

Not one person can tell me why my hypothesis flat out won't work.

What way in specific is questionable about what I am doing?
 
Otonomy will start a trial for cochlear synapse damage in 2019 and Decibel is working on something.
According to most companies , I live in the middle of a giant farm field with a population of 10,000 people, and if there aren't multiple trial locations NATIONWIDE, I'm not going to be a very happy person if this thing doesn't go away by the time I graduate high school.
 
the tonaki tinnitus scammers are literally on to me. I'm a bit uneasy tbh

i played stupid in a private email with them and then asked tough questions and showed them the list of scams. they immediately blocked me.
 
the guy repeated (YOU DONT KNOW UNTIL YOU TRY IT) 60 DAY MONEY BACK! THIS IS BACKED BY SCIENCE.

I was talking to a machine it felt like.
 
Our posts got deleted Contrast.
Nice job you fucking asshole.

Who are you to decide who posts in your shitty topic? Are you a moderator?
Stop it. Contrast's a good guy.

Regarding your earlier post, even if you believe free speech should allow such content, such a post can only harm the cause of a cure for tinnitus.

With respect.
 
I'm out of the loop. What did Euphoria post?

I posted a picture and i wrote something morbid about ENT's. My post was NOT meant to annoy anyone, nor was i trying to be destructive. And first and foremost, it was not a personal attack aimed at anyone. But since our posts got deleted, my post on page 166 stands alone, without context.

My post on page 166 was an reaction to me being flamed and being called a nutjob by Contrast.
 
If a person did get a drug to regrow their haircells, what do yall think they would experience as they regrew and and their T went away? Like a switch off one day, or a gradual quietness increasing day by day?

Second option imo
I fantasize about this... Don't we all.
 
I cannot do this. I cannot live without music. I'd absolutely have rather lost a limb, by far. And trust me when I say I don't say this lightly.
Fellow (former??) dedicated musicians/audiophiles, those of you for whom music was food. Spiritual sustenance. Everything, really.
How do you survive without music? How can I?? This is a genuine question. Please.

I'm a musician and have stopped playing since I got this shit. I'm giving myself 5 years- It's all I ever did and wanted to do. Never had a problem till I went to a house party, now all I do is work and sleep ( if I can)

I'm just venting- but my T is pretty chill if I get a good rest. Still I'd love to be out playing live again

For that paragraph - Exact. Same. Every bit, down to the single party having done me in. Hugs and tears.
 
I, personally, am looking at Frequency TX, Otonomy 413, and to a much lesser degree U of MN and Susan Shore.
But really, I don't know how realistic that is for me. How long I'll be, that is.
 
It blows me away, I always thought hearing loss was about exactly that- Hearing worse which I would MUCH prefer over this. Even if my T would just stabilize I would be much happier.
PDodge, do you have a level of HL which is significant to you?
 
How about you?
Yes, I do have a level of HL which is significant to me. I average 10-20 DB from 250-8000 hz, then when I hit 12k or so I take a steep dive and at 14k or so I'm deaf as a stone.

More significant than all these numbers is that music sounds dull, deadened, missing its feel.
And my T is wild.

So, yes. I absolutely have a degree of HL which is significant to me.
