Hello @Annina, I’m sorry you are going through all of this. The fact that it has only been two months is actually a good sign. It means there is still a chance for things to improve or for you to get used to it. The best advice I can give is to protect yourself from any sounds that hurt or...

There is a clinical trial by Cochlear for tinnitus that involves ear stimulation. The trial lists having tinnitus in one ear as a requirement, but if you have it in both ears, the worse ear is the one that gets implanted. There is also Dr. Carlson, who is working on an implant for one-sided...

I agree with everything @GregCA had to say. The only thing I can add is the possibility of trying oxygen therapy as well. Some people have reported success, and there is some research to support that. There is also a current clinical trial for one-sided tinnitus using a device that is showing...

Is there any follow-up to this trial? It seems to be one of the most promising treatments available. Are they planning to conduct more animal studies, and what is next in terms of human trials? Having Dan Polley speak about this on a Tinnitus Talk Podcast episode would be great.

This is the kind of research that will eventually lead to a cure.

In the Meniere’s Reddit forum, they said that Ebselen has been extended to an open-label phase, which will further test how effective it is. It might take more time than originally expected.

William R., you are a legend. Thank you.

This was a great paper on the role of neuroinflammation in tinnitus. The authors highlighted current medications that can address this, as well as future goals for clinical trials. I hope they continue with this research.

I called the Mayo Clinic, where Dr. Carlson works. I asked about the tinnitus implant trial and whether I could join or learn more about it. The clerk said that the research department informed them the trial had been completed and that they may or may not conduct another one in the future. The...

This looks great, but I have a few questions if anyone knows the answers. My first question is: how is this different from the treatment that was offered in Korea, which some members here tried? The article mentions that the group that didn’t receive the treatment also improved by, I think...

@Fields, hey, if you feel like it is not too bad and you are managing to get through each day, then I would not suggest doing the clinical trial. If you have any questions about the procedure, you can email them. I am sure they will get back to you. They answered me within a day.

I reached out to the researchers about participating in the trials, but you have to live in Belgium or the Netherlands to be eligible, which ruled me out. If any members are from those countries, they mentioned that they are still recruiting, in case you are interested in joining.

Thanks for the reply, @Nick47. I really appreciate it, and I will donate to the campaign. Tinnitus Quest is our best chance at a real treatment.
