Reading this forum you might think the TRT is becoming obsolete, unfortunately I'm not sure this is the case IRL, we're probably years ahead, what do you guys think?
thanks to MPP this forum is far more progressive, the problem is most therapist tell people to stay off tinnitus forums literally because of us.
the irl tinnitus normies are living by the doctrines of stone age audiology.
use a linux distro, it's good for you.
I go with Mint as my distro and Cinnamon as the desktop enviorment.
Even FX TX used the 8 khz (no further) audiogram in their video as far as I remember
It's like a fking cancer
I'd think it will affect the higher frequencies better anyway. Can we please just fast forward 1 year?
tonal audiograms dont test for speech in background noise or complex noise such as music, that's the problem.
The 8 khz audiogram is considered standard. You and I know it's retarded, but if I ask them why they used it in their video they'll just look at me funny. It's standard.
Professor Liberman showed evidence of cochlear synapse damage occuring after acoustic traumabefore the death of the hair cells and that it was applied to all acoustic trauma, and likely age related hearing loss and ototoxicity as well.
The hair cells can take a beating before dying, but their ribbon synapses attached to hair cells are very fragile and a hair cell that is partially denerved has a weak signal causing music to sound like broken garbage.
It regenerates hair cells, but if hair cells are damaged with less ribbon synapses and audiotory nerve fiber attachments it won't fix that.
thats why I'm extremely skeptical of FX-322.
the damaged ones don't, didn't you say hair cells won't grow in populations they already exist?
It seems that way. All I know is that this technology restored hearing in mice and if it restores hearing thats restoring lost input and I'd bet it eliminates tinnitus.
music could still be broken garbage in the normal frequencies but they give you extremely high pitch hearing back that is useless.
also I believe you'd have to recover hearing within the exact frequency of the tinnitus.
If so, we'll have nothing. Oh well I could have had such a great life. But no.
I don't understand why this condition even exists. It's horrendous. There is no good God. Period. It's just all just random. No good God could ever do this. (my opinion only, not trying to start no argument) I'm hurting so bad.
FounderMy evening and night has consisted of editing footage of @Steve and @David (executive director of British Tinnitus Association) discussing current state of tinnitus research etc. They recorded this session this Friday.
My thinking is that this type of video could be an annual endeavor.
Hopefully I'll be publishing the video tomorrow or in the next few days (it's nearly ready now).
The finished product will be about an hour long...!

Thank you!
And thank you @Manny too!
The only thing that won't make to the video are subtitles. It takes around 5-10x the video length to subtitle a video, meaning it would take approx 5-10 hours for this one.
I have so many others items on my task list, including Monday's Neuromod Q&A and editing it, that I can't spare time to subtitle this.
I know it's unfortunate for those hard of hearing - and indeed I have usually strived to subtitle our videos.
If there is anyone in our community who would like to volunteer their time to create subtitles for this video (and maybe some of our future ones), please get in touch with me. The volunteer would need to have some previous experience with subtitling software, or the technical ability and willingness to learn. Subtitling isn't just about transcribing, it also requires syncing the lines to the speech, which can be time consuming.
If nobody steps up to the plate, I guess I will need to do it myself, once again... which I possibly can do when things slow down over the Christmas period. It is thankfully possible to attach SubRip subtitles (.srt) to YouTube and Facebook videos after the initial publication, so that isn't a problem.
