The idea of gating mechanism certainly isn't. I think the identification of this part of the brain as being responsible is new.

You probably don’t even need to buy it from pharmaceutical companies—just have a lab produce it since the molecules are already known. There shouldn’t be any intellectual property issues, as long as it’s not being commercially exploited.

Is there a thread here on migraine medications following Dr. Djalilian's talk covering this?

I agree 100% with this. In my view, there is very likely some existing treatment that is highly effective in many people but has been missed. This is why my idea was to thoroughly survey every treatment (e.g., summarising every study).

Yes, this is right. I remember the developer of NHPN-1010 said the same thing.

Very interesting. One thing that occurred to me (that others may or may not have thought of) is that a tinnitus filtering mechanism might have explanatory power as to the causes of tinnitus. I have seen many people say that drug x is ototoxic and caused my tinnitus. Whilst I have absolutely no...

Tinearity looks like a glorified white noise generator.

People need to keep on topic. 99% of the stuff being posted is not relevant to aut00063.

Hi, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I'd say my tinnitus is around a 3 - 4. It gets worse at night. Emotions seem to have little effect. I'm due to be randomised in two weeks (there was a delay due to GPs being slow). I believe that this is when I will receive the injections. I...
