I would think that timeline is way too optimistic. but what do I know. R. Kurzweil is no shlump.

If this happens by 2029 it will be a progress acceleration that will forever remain unparalleled...just think! From Jastreboff to the Singularity in 40 years!!

I wonder what it would take to effect a paradigm shift within audiology and otology to get these "medical professions" to take HEARING seriously...
What do you guys think?

I don't think "audiology and otology medical professions" are able to do anything more than what they have been trained to do. R&D must produce a new treatment that will have enough market demand to change how income is produced by "medical professionals".

Any "paradigm shift" will be prompted by the opportunity to make money.
 
I'm really starting to think tinnitus will be defeated very soon. We dont know, fx 322 could already have done this.

When this happens I will go to the empty office space that houses the ATA and praise God.

Can someone 'splain me, WTF is a tinnitus clinic, really?!
TRT sales place. I have been to several tinnitus clinics

Some may have sound therapy devices neuromod style

But most offer TRT, or hearing aids. That's it.

All outta your own pocket. It's one of the primary reasons why I blew threw all my savings
 
What is MPPs thoughts on mutebutton? I am optimistic and looking forward to the release in January. I know FDA will take longer (hopefully not too long), but at least the Ireland release will give us some insight into how well it works.

At this point my thoughts are only that it HAS TO help me - if not, I simply won't make it.
If it I judge that it could reasonably help me I will do whatever it takes to get it ASAP. If that means flying to Ireland I have zero problem with that at this point.

That's super bullcrap that you'd even have to fly there. It's just a tongue zapper with sounds. If the USA wont let you buy one over the internet then that means our country is stupid.

There will be many people who buy this out of desperation. They'll make money even if it doesn't really do anything. I've already spent enough money with no results. If it really works it will take the world by storm, like trt...

Yeah I'm gonna spunk another 4k on it and if it does fuck all I really don't know what's next. Tinnitus has jaded the shit out of me. This ain't living folks. It's eating dog shit for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Every fucking day.
 
My sense is that audiology, as an entire discipline (not just TRT in specific), is corrupt, it is greedy and, most critically its medical advances are way behind pace of those of other current medical fields.
Am I right, or is this just my bias?

the normies aren't coorporating, they refuse to define hyperacusis.

also they don't count ear fullness as pain.
