I believe actual cures are decades away.

Let's hope not :S

Hello everynyan.

I haven't left exactly, I just haven't written in a long while.

I hope anyone that reads this has hope at least, and still eats somewhat healthy both with their eyes and their mouths.

Aye.

These are articles from 2019, but it's been predicted that we'll be able to have our ears fixed somehow during this decade. R&D of medicine is speeding up much like R&D in technology.

Of course, we will not know until we know, but it is stuff like this that keeps me going.

It has been years. There's still nothing. There's truly no hope for us...

I'm a bit surprised to see this thread after all this time. Learning more about medicine has made me realize just how far behind we are in the medical field overall. It feels like we could have made much more progress if the majority of people weren't so close-minded and if doctors weren't often just focused on making easy money. On top of that, taxpayer money is wasted on completely useless things (though I can't go into detail without risking a ban). Honestly, it seems like we're regressing as a species rather than progressing.

Anyway, my tinnitus is still here. I think it started around 2017? Time flies. It's crazy how much has happened in my life since then. At this point, it's more of a secondary issue for me, although it's always at the back of my mind. I do worry that one day it might get permanently worse, and I'd have to confront it again.

Just like three years ago, did you guys know I still spend most of the day playing with FOSS image editing software? But now I'm an image processing expert with a very deep understanding of what I am doing, unlike 3 years ago when I was a novice just getting my feet wet in deep technical concepts.
