Illegal aliens are here by the millions, thanks to Joe Biden. The far left took over the Democratic Party, needed new voters who would also serve as extremely cheap labor, so they began allowing this to happen. Taxpayers are the ones who pay for it. This is not a cruel country to those who come...

The Republicans are responsible for the shutdown because they don't have the votes and are trying to pass a funding bill that funds their partisan budget, and the Republicans are refusing to negotiate with the Democrats. It has nothing to do with transgender people or illegal aliens. You have...

There’s a roll-on with 4% that might be easier to apply than patches. I haven’t tried it for any extended period of time for tinnitus, though.

I'm thinking to get steroid shot in my ear to recover hearing loss, since I lost since last Friday, I done it 9 years ago before, now I'm thinking do the same, what do you guys think?

My tinnitus tones seemed to very slightly and gradually subside this morning. It was still horrible, but suddenly this afternoon they returned to catastrophic levels. I wish more people would talk about these changes here, or that I knew where people were discussing them. It is beyond...

Not my side of the pond, but usually in “kiss and tell” rumors involving politicians, one side won’t expose the other because their own politicians are doing the same thing. Of course, in modern times, child sex is a big taboo. The Prince Andrew case is revealing. Allegedly, he befriended...

Isn’t a final study on Coordinated Acoustic Reset Therapy worth it? All that residual inhibition stuff works for me. I think the publishing world is underrated.

The Epstein Files likely contain prominent politicians from both sides of the aisle. I suppose this might have influenced that decision. Just like insider trading is definitely happening in both camps.

55 years old is still a young man! You have plenty of time to see a cure, treatment, or even a reversal of tinnitus and hearing loss in your lifetime, especially as AI begins to benefit research.

Ok, here’s a thought for the day. Sit back, get comfortable, and relax. Let the train wreck itself.

So what? That gives them the right to break into homes during the night, arrest children while they’re sleeping, with no warrant and no explanation why? These are just people minding their own lives, trying to survive in a cruel country that once welcomed them. Don’t tell me about what’s...

Unfortunately, the ear pressure is still very much present, banging every time I swallow. The tinnitus is still intensified. I had a very disappointing ENT appointment, so I’m going to look for another doctor to see me as soon as possible.

@Nick47, do you still follow this at all? It’s an old thread, but like so many on these forums, there isn’t much closure or follow-up.

I underwent surgery on my left wrist and noticed no worsening of my tinnitus. I assume they will give you antibiotics, so you may want to make sure they are not using an ototoxic brand. Opiates can worsen tinnitus. If they give you a lot of morphine pills to take after surgery, nod politely but...

Hi @Christiaan Wondering if you’re still around and if you still follow the microdosing protocol, if not hoping you can advise how long you were on it for and how long you’ve been off it Thanks

hi @alanisnotadj I see back in 2023 you talk about gabapentin helping with your hyperacusis and nox, but then I see your response in the linre thread about Duloxetine & Mirtazapine helping these. I'm hoping you can provide more insight into what helped more or was it more of a compounding...

Audiologist appointment next week and I guess the gist is to avoid every test besides the standard hearing test correct?

Thank you, @Sydnears. Having it 24/7 for seven full months now makes it hard to stay hopeful, but I’m at least hoping it will calm down once my hormones settle postpartum. I’ll definitely send an update to let you all know how it goes. I really appreciate your kindness!

No, I didn’t have what you’re describing. However, I did experience amplified beeping, hissing, and ringing during my spike after the MRI. My usual tone is a baseline ringing with a Morse code-like beeping or chirping overlay. So during the spike, it felt like a full cacophony of new and louder...

Update 6: I was rubbing my ear, and it suddenly popped, which made my hearing better. What does that mean?

It’s crazy how similar your case is to mine. Both of us developed high-frequency tinnitus from sound trauma, and both right after taking NAC. However, my high-frequency tinnitus went down dramatically after I stopped taking NAC. I’m now trying Clinical Sublingual Glutathione in the morning and...

Update 5: I just got back home from my ENT appointment. I could barely hear what either of the two doctors was saying. Apparently, my eardrum is fine, but there’s a lot of earwax. They also said there’s no more fluid in my ear. I can still hear my own voice. I have an appointment with the...

I stuck my finger in my ear yesterday because I didn’t have time to use earplugs. I think I went too deep into the canal, and now my inner ear is really sore and painful. Has anyone else done this? I’m just wondering how long the discomfort might last. It has happened before, but I’ve forgotten...

Wouldn't the Democrats have released the Epstein files during Biden's four years in office if they contained evidence that could have ruined Trump's chances of winning the 2024 election? They're pretty boneheaded most of the time, but I doubt they would have missed an opportunity like that.

I've had surgery with anesthesia. If anything, my tinnitus was better after.

Unfortunately, there has still been no reduction in the spike, even after more than three months. I’m terrified.

Hello @Deamon22, First of all, thank you very much for your reply! I’ve received many recommendations about wearing a headband or scarf, and I think that will be my go-to choice this winter. I’ll definitely let you know how it goes! I also noticed that you’re from Italy, which is full of...

Your anxiety and fear response to the sound they made is more likely the cause of the inner ear cramping, as your inner ear muscles tense up in anticipation of the sound. I experience the same thing but have gotten better at managing it by letting go of that fear and anxiety. If something that...

Yes, she was asked about this, and I believe the first time she referred to the "cross-over" effect was during the Tinnitus Hub Q&A. If you remember, at that time (a couple of years ago), she was asked specifically about the group that underwent the active treatment in weeks 13-18, and how...

I’m afraid I’ll have to play Devil’s Advocate and support your decision. If you’ve truly reached the end of your rope and all enjoyment has been drained from your life to the point where you can go through with assisted dying, not an easy thing to do, and you fully understand that it means...

Does this include dog barks? I’m really worried about a small dog’s bark that caused a spike for me, and now I’m in the first week of it. I checked my phone and realized it happened on the 21st, so it’s been almost a week, and it’s a horrible spike. I was really careless and didn’t wear...

Thank you Ben van der Valk. I hope you find relief.

Great work! I’ll be donating monthly and look forward to seeing the progress made. :)

Hit my first T birthday on Friday. It feels so unreal. Still 4 days in Rehab. Met so many sufferers...

Hers went away about a month after giving birth. I think she developed it around halfway through her pregnancy. She had a low-pitched, engine-like grumbling tinnitus at night that drove her to despair. But as I said, it eventually resolved. Fingers crossed yours does too, though with tinnitus...

Ah, it’s the worst! I’m about six months in. Mine developed after an infection. I don’t care about my high-pitched tinnitus, but this low-pitch noise is brutal. I don’t sense a vibration (I don’t think mine is deep enough), but I can feel the sound waves “moving” when I plug my ears or when I’m...

I just read the article about Ben van der Valk and thought it was great. Thank you, Ben, for helping out tremendously. I agree that Tinnitus Quest will do great things.

There is more going on than just the SSD. Rinri Therapeutics is researching regenerative cell therapy to regenerate damaged auditory neurons. Recently, scientists managed to keep a slice of cochlea alive outside the body, allowing them to observe how hair cells amplify sound. These are just a...

I’m scared to take tablets for Vitamin B12. I would rather get my B12 from food sources.

I know that a lot of people are skeptical about AI, but I’m not one of them. However, when it comes to what you’re talking about—a real treatment for tinnitus—what are the chances that it will actually come about in our lifetime? Also, most people would still rather be around, young enough, and...

That’s so great! Is your tinnitus completely gone, or do you still have it?

After my onset of high-frequency reactive tinnitus in January, I stopped trying different supplements and treatments to fix it. The only things I currently take are 4 g of Omega-3, 400 mg of Magnesium Biglycinate, and 1000 IU of Vitamin D3. I’m no longer trying to find my frequency, as it’s...

Today, as the tinnitus rings on and fills my head, all I can think about for the past few hours is the person who did this to me, the MRI tech who I begged and pleaded to fix my hearing protection, only to be told multiple times it is in properly and threatened to end the session because they...

I am starting clomipramine soon i dont care. I need something for my pain.

I read your original post, and I’m so sorry this is happening to you. It sounds like your case is exceptionally severe. Can I gently suggest that you still have time to improve, and that your condition isn’t necessarily permanent? It seems you’ve had tinnitus for about the same amount of time as...

Today is the quietest my tinnitus has been since this all started. I’m in a completely silent room, and I can barely hear it—it’s so faint. I truly hope this means I’m in the final stretch before it disappears for good. I’m running low on food, though, and really need to go to the grocery...

I don't think you can realistically compare past research on tinnitus cures to what AI will be able to do in the future using the same metric. As AI continues to develop, we are likely to see superhuman intelligence in the next few years, with IQs well over 1000. AI will be able to carry out...

Hey Sonia, I’m doing great, thank you very much. Yes, it generally improved. My hyperacusis still fluctuates, and I notice it again when I’m sick, but overall it doesn’t bother me in daily life anymore.

This discussion is literally about a treatment that should be available within five years. Auricle aside, we seem to be living in a promising time for tinnitus research. There are several other treatments currently in testing, and I believe that within ten years, we could see multiple options...

Look forward to it (y) As it happens, E... I was frying with one of our pans a couple of weeks ago when the handle fell off. Ended up covered in onions, so I'm on the market for a decent new skillet. I picked some leaves this afternoon, having found this recipe, to try out, with steak and the...

You are not even American, so your opinions are worthless to me. In my opinion, Trump and his cabinet members are doing a good job. Meanwhile, the Democrats are shutting down our government until they can allow transgender men in women’s sports and locker rooms, and provide free healthcare to...

I have something similar to you in my left ear. There’s a steady tone in complete silence, and a morse code type sound when there’s external noise that interacts with it. I can feel my eardrum, or the skin around that area, vibrating when it rests on my pillow. I’ve found that playing a...

Where did you read that Wayne Kent Taylor tried Lenire? Wikipedia reports that he tried an “experimental treatment,” but the footnoted link is an article behind a paywall. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Kent_Taylor
