The doctor may be right or wrong, but it would be foolish to not get your jaw checked out. There are cases of people who had hyperacusis where their jaw and/or neck was a major factor in their symptoms. Unfortunately medicine has over-compartmentalised the anatomy of the body, so there's not...
Tbh the answer to this is pretty straightforward. Some people heal IN SPITE of the fact they are receiving damaging sound "therapy". Others, unsurprisingly, get worse. I myself am one of those people. Ask all these auditory "professionals" to show you a single PLACEBO-controlled, blinded...
I would not go anywhere near HBO therapy. A lot of people have worsened and without surprise due to middle ear pressurisation issues. Additionally, free radicals from too much oxygen can potentially cause more damage. It's just too big of a risk. I'm not familiar with many people here who have...
I'm in Europe, so it's OTC here. I know people in America have a harder time getting access. I've previously bought from this place but they seem to be out of stock as well.
Regarding ginger, don't bother with supplements. There are quality control issues and in any case you need high...
Play with fire, get burned. Same old story for so many of us here. Welcome to the club none of us asked to join.
I'll try to address the rest of your post some other time, but regarding supplements, here's what worked and didn't work for me:
High dose CoQ10 - 800mg or more. As you already...
The bullishness of some people on here despite the results of the last trial was something to behold. I'm sorry for all those who got burned twice.
Management has been shown to be completely untrustworthy and incompetent. Glad I sold most of my position last year - I'm actually embarrassed I...
I've never denied the possibility that psychological factors could play a role in the development of hyperacusis. I myself developed hyperacusis several months after losing a parent to suicide, despite the trigger being acoustic shock from a loud motorbike. However, it's one thing to identify...
I seem to remember reading somewhere that some people don't respond to SGBs well when given to one side of the neck but very well to the other. It's poorly understood, but perhaps something to consider before making your final decision.
I've spoken to many people with hyperacusis and until today I thought I was the only person who has had this experience.
During the first six months, I had hyperacusis in both ears all the time. Over the next 6 months, I then had a lot of ear "flipping". Effectively, my hyperacusis seemed to...
I should probably make it known that I've actually since changed my opinion. I'm no longer convinced that the cochlea has a role in this chain (at least in most cases), and that the entire pathology is middle-ear related (which is sustained/worsened by negative feedback loops with the brain), as...
I also reached out to Norena, sadly with no response. I'm not sure they appreciate how closely some of us follow their work. That or they're just so inundated with emails they don't have the time.
