    AudioCure AC102 to Treat Hearing loss and Tinnitus

    Therapies targeting recent-onset cases are where most of the successes seem to cluster. (Mind you, I have submitted my patented cure for recent-onset tinnitus — 100 percent natural — breadcrumbs! But don’t tell anyone. 😎) It makes you wonder about the connection between psychology and...

    ATP-Gated P2x7 Receptors Express at Type II Auditory Nerves and Required for Efferent Hearing Control and Noise Protection

    Go on! Silver-tongued, pseudo-academic, raising our hopes… But if you are actually onto something, that would be wonderful. So, where is the catch? Does it only work for early-onset cases who happen to be billionaires? 😟

    Excitotoxicity: New Class of Fibers Could Explain Tinnitus

    Just me surmising again, so perhaps it’s nonsense. Starting with the first ten words of the quote: “The development of an effective therapy for tinnitus and hyperacusis…” First, the patient presents to the ENT with subjective tinnitus. After being checked for earwax blockage and tumors, they...

    Stanford Initiative to Cure Hearing Loss Now Lists Tinnitus

    I read one of the reports from your link, and it provides a good overview of the direction audiology research has been taking. It highlights how the field of knowledge is evolving and emphasizes that there are still significant gaps that need to be filled. For example, one research team might...

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    Here I am, extrapolating on something I only half understand. But if I recall correctly, Lenire is a combination of sound therapy and a device that “tickles your tongue.” To be a bit fairer, it also involves guided counselling, which in the early stages of tinnitus can be quite important. From...

    Am I the Unluckiest Person on Earth When It Comes to Tinnitus? My 6-Year Tinnitus Nightmare: How One Festival Changed My Life

    Nice summary, @trevl, and it matches my experience as well. That said, we still do not know the full story of what is going on. There could be tinnitus, and then there could be tinnitus. What I mean is that the auditory system is incredibly complex. Of course, noise-induced tinnitus is...

    Am I the Unluckiest Person on Earth When It Comes to Tinnitus? My 6-Year Tinnitus Nightmare: How One Festival Changed My Life

    Sorry to hear that you are in such a position, @Kam75. It feels like the world has gone mad. Just last summer, my landlord gave me notice to leave after seven and a half years. With the way things are going, it has become very difficult to find a place to rent. It seems like there is a new...

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    Now all Lenire needs is to introduce an after-sales follow-up, a heavy-duty persuasion session to convince the patient that their tinnitus has been cured. Like, no one can hear it... it is all in the mind. Just kidding. That said, I must confess that I benefited from TRT treatment back in the...

    University of Pennsylvania: Advances and Perspectives in Auditory Neuroscience (APAN) 2025 Meeting

    Tinnitus and hyperacusis patients have much in common with the deaf and hard of hearing. So it makes sense to network with one another when it comes to research, rehabilitation, and therapy, even if some of the treatments might be considered outliers. I recently came across a photo of research...

    I'm Fine — Tinnitus Is Basically Not a Thing Anymore

    Well, if you do end up “joining the club” of chronic tinnitus sufferers — and note, you still have roughly until October 2026 (two years from onset) for your tinnitus to ease off or at least improve — so don’t give up hope yet. In my case, during the early stages, I was running around like a...

    I'm Fine — Tinnitus Is Basically Not a Thing Anymore

    Just a suggestion: try getting out into the sunshine, away from the sounds of traffic and city noise. The sounds of the river, birds, and wind can be calming. At the very least, you might enjoy the time spent there. Of course, how you manage that with trucks and cars driving and honking right...

    I'm Fine — Tinnitus Is Basically Not a Thing Anymore

    I see that you joined in late January 2025, so I conclude that your tinnitus onset was sometime in January 2025, about five months ago. You are still in the acute (early onset) phase. Your chances of it getting better are pretty good. It would be helpful to have a good ENT who understands...

    Stanford Initiative to Cure Hearing Loss Now Lists Tinnitus

    Glow-in-the-dark axolotls reveal a clue in the mystery of limb regeneration To cheer you up and divert your attention from tinnitus: a) It is all about retinoic acid! Now why did I not think of that! b) Humanity has been evolving in the wrong direction. We should reverse course and develop...

    Injectable Polyplex-Loaded Glycol Chitosan Thermogel for Efficient and Safe Inner Ear Gene Delivery

    Well, as I have said before, it is never too late. Fire up the motors and inject the substance again. See if it works this time.

    Hi Kam75, I'm shocking ignorant about computers. I think you added a lot to the dialogue with JoeCync... could you explain to me what "following you" means? Sorry that I'm so ignorant. Vive la France joeseph Stope
