Fantastic work Contrast.
Thank you.
I have a question for you.

What do you think about Dr. Silverstein in Sarasota Florida and the round window reinforcement surgery for hyperacusis?
It appears he is helping folks, but the medical community is still sticking to TRT sound therapy for hyperacusis.
Just curious as to your impressions, or anyone, for that matter.
Thanks.

He pretends pain hyperacusis doesn't exist just like the TRTers however...

He's not a scammer in any circumstance, his treatment could help. It works by an ear plug blocking the ears ability to process high pitch noises entirely.

If tinnitus originates in the dorsal cochlear nucleus then then only thing that is going to work for us is probably Lenire. How could fx-322 or anything else affect that?

 

[JohnAdams]

@PolishSoldier87 how do we heal the dorsal cochlear nucleus?
fasting? tinnitus mix?

Here are some videos that should give all of us some hope as well as inspiration:

Let's face it, the Internet was designed for the PC. The Internet is not designed for the iPhone. That's why they've got 75,000 applications - they're all trying to make the Internet look decent on the iPhone. - Balmer 2009

this comment literally predicted normies would overthrow the Internet.

I'm in a Tinnitus Clinic right know where they have lots of experience for many years but when I tell them there might be a cure soon they just say I should not think about it. It would hinder acceptance.

This seems to be the kind of nonsense coming down from the establishment, this and stuff like "tinnitus volume isn't what bothers people". It is as if they have carefully crafted a sort of mindset that THEY think we should have as sufferers.
The claim that tinnitus loudness is not the thing that bothers people, I feel, is a lie that makes the sufferer feel like the reason tinnitus is bothering them is because they aren't mindful enough. Essentially that if your tinnitus bothers you, it is your fault, not the loudness of your tinnitus and you should seek therapy or some hog wash like that. They may think they are actually helping by trying to brainwash sufferers into trying really hard to habituate but they aren't. Some of us aren't braindead sheep and know that's not true and it really pisses us off.

Does all tinnitus originate from the dorsal cochlear nucleus? (not counting pulsatile style)

I don't think so, but I could be totally wrong. It could be coming from all over the place, the organ of corti, the brain etc. Maybe it is the DCN????

I think 80% of tinnitus is in the DCN. If you can make it quieter/louder by moving a muscle then it's for sure in the DCN.

You should demand your money back from these quacks.
That type of mentality is exactly the reason why there hasn't been any urgency to find a real cure.

Tinnitus is a physical problem and it needs a physical solution.
Be it regrowing the hair cells, or forcing it to abandon the neuron's bad behaviour through bimodal stimulation of sorts, etc.

This is equivalent of trying to talk someone out of a broken arm.
This is insulting to people's intelligence, yet for some reason touted as the ultimate solution.
They are trying to fix the symptom, not the actual cause and actually bragging about it.

In the end, they might be able to build a very unstable house of cards at best, which is not doing anyone any favours.
But what they really do excel at, is transferring the sufferers money into their pockets.

Those who would destroy our lives with lies will themselves be destroyed by truth.

A combination of therapies?
Why not?
Seems simple and logical.

That there is literally self described "evil cabalists" that are politically motivated that run wikipedia that are going through and whitewashing a lot of controversial facts from articles.

It says that is there as a joke, but it's not. The users that are in those "cabals" actively change articles for political and other reasons.

If you're confused as to what this is, here's an explanation
