    Is Erythromycin as an Eye Ointment Ototoxic?

    I just had a cyst removed from my eyelid, and they applied Erythromycin ointment to the area. Three hours later, my tinnitus has spiked severely. I wiped the ointment away. Is there any chance that my spike will go back down, or could this be permanent? Oh my God.

    Have You Ever Taken Ginkgo Biloba for 6 Weeks?

    Thank you! I will cautiously try Ginkgo biloba. I am also going to talk with my GP next week about going back on the Shulman Protocol, which includes Gabapentin and a very low dosage of Clonazepam. I used to take 0.5 mg three times a day, and it kept my tinnitus at a tolerable level all the...

    Have You Ever Taken Ginkgo Biloba for 6 Weeks?

    @Michael Leigh, I have read that for people who do not get any relief from Ginkgo Biloba, it is because they take too low a dosage. What dose and brand do you take? I really want to try this, but I do not know how to start. What is the tincture form, and how do you ingest it? Thanks!

    Re-Training the Tinnitus Brain

    @*TG, you seem very knowledgeable and well-informed. I am jumping in here to ask your opinion about the Berard AIT approach. I am considering giving it a try, but I have not found anyone who knows anything about it.

    Berard Auditory Integration Training (AIT) Treatment for Tinnitus

    What does that mean? I am not sure what that is referring to. The website about AIT says it is a treatment for tinnitus. The practitioner I met with for an initial consultation said she had tinnitus, and this treatment got rid of it. Sometimes it comes back, and she does the listening sessions...

    Berard Auditory Integration Training (AIT) Treatment for Tinnitus

    Has anyone heard of this or actually tried it? An acquaintance told me she had good results with lowering the volume of her tinnitus and even experienced some quiet days using this treatment system. I found a practitioner who is almost local and spoke with her about trying this approach to...

    Can NeuroQuiet Improve Tinnitus? Or Is It Just Another Scam? Experiences or Reviews?

    Has anyone tried NeuroQuiet, the ear drops that are being advertised frequently? It looks like a scam to me, but like all of you, I’m willing to try just about anything to quiet my screaming head.

    Tinnitus from Loud Noise Exposure — TMJ, Significant Upper Cervical and Neck Issues & History of Allergies, Sinus Problems, and Viral Infections

    Hi from NC! My response to your TRT question is just my opinion: it doesn’t do anything at all to your tinnitus—you just “learn” not to listen to it. For 14 years, I’ve been searching for something to make the noise go away. Lately, I’ve been trying self-hypnosis with a glimmer of success. My...

    Lion's Mane Mushroom

    I’ve been researching the Lion’s Mane/Niacin idea and trying to work up the courage to try it. I’ve already gotten some of both, but I’m missing the other ingredient and have no way to get it. I’m always terrified of experiencing a big spike that might never go away. Has anyone tried this and...
