    Can Anxiety Cause Tinnitus?

    While there's no clear proof yet, it's been proven that people who meditate build up resiliance against anxiety (the ancient part of the brain the controls the Tinnitus response). One ofthe reasons is that it calms the brain down (remember, T is driven by overly excited neurons). Meditation...

    Can Anxiety Cause Tinnitus?

    Hi Martin, First, never give me kudos, because I will almost inevitably inundate you with massive amounts of data! :) Seriously, being caught in the fight or flight negative feedback loop is, without question, one of the scariest experiences around. And it's intended to be--the ancient (not...

    Sanuthera Receives 510(k) Clearance for Tinnitus Treatment Device

    "The FDA clearance comes as Sanuthera concludes a clinical study at the Cleveland Clinic. In the study, more than 85% of tinnitus sufferers using the Serenity device have shown improvement at 1, 3, and 6 months. To indicate results, the study uses the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI), a...

    Retigabine (Trobalt, Potiga) — General Discussion

    Thank you. I'm guessing there will be no panacea (no one cure), but a combination therapy, no? Seems most likely scenario...

    It's always amazed me: we're animals. Yes, we dress, have cultural activities, use thumbs and a bicamberal brain, but at the core of it, we're animals. Animals survived by collaborating. But as "evolved" beings, we've decided that somehow it's every human for themselves. This is inherently not...

    Right. I do think there's real potential here. As it is, people (like Danny, others) are making themselves guinea pigs without any proper protocols and a "let's see what happens" approach. Brave, yes. But doesn't make for a realistic trial. It's blue-sky thinking, to be sure, but with soooo many...

    Yeah, not sure that likes make a difference really. And as for crowd-funding, it'd need more than "we." Think people like Chris Martin and Pete Townsend--high-profile celebs who suffer from T? Just thinkin' on a Sunday...

    Ah, cheers. Well, thing is, there are a lot of "ifs" and other caveats, but crowd-funding could be something to explore, depending on what the the most promising treatment is. As it is, we certainly are at at the mercy of big pharma, in general, and these "next big thing" inventions, specifically.

    Has anyone thought of putting together an "investor's pool" for something like this?

    Retigabine (Trobalt, Potiga) — General Discussion

    Interesting. Agreed that outside is very healing; at least, temporarily. Still trying to figure out why certain frequencies terminate T for up to 20 seconds at a time. So, http://www.audionotch.com/app/tune/ at 8234 Hz just seems to make my "high freq" T dissipate rapidly--but only for a short...

    Congrats! If I could: What is your a) dose, b) change (10/10 to 2/10)? c) side effects?

    Ahhh, nice. I was thinking of Metta mindfulness; that's been something I've been grooming for years now, and it seems especially important now. Any sort of masking/notched therapy??

    Retigabine (Trobalt, Potiga) — General Discussion

    A cure is coming. They're getting close, having isolated the Potassium channels than govern this shite. Try mindfulness meditation--seriously. It helps people with chronic illness (ancientbrain.net or look up MBSR). These things will not cure anything, but they may change your relationship to...
