If we had better descriptions of the patients, more people would do the operations and better information would come from that too. This applies to Hain or Silverstein. Silverstein did his more than fair bit with his seminars and presenting the study at an otology conference, but we can do...

Anyway, saying doctors are cowards is too extreme, saying they're useless bureaucrats would be a better estimate, and that the more pretentious among them who ship the patients off to shrinks and TRT are the creepiest of them all is also accurate. If I were an ear doctor I wouldn't risk my...

There's never been a visible loss of hearing on audiometry, but audiometry tests are lame anyways and don't hit the exact frequencies of my two tinnituses. However, the idea that hearing loss and hyperacusis are linked is probably just a myth Jastreboff concocted together with magical thinking...

Well that depends on what you think your life is worth. I think my life is worth stuff as it is now despite what the vultures have said to me, but I know people for whom their life isn't worth anything and they're willing to be guinea pigs. I have heard good and bad outcomes from this I agree...

Sorry haven't been on Tinnitus Talk for ages. Looks like a couple of months after that post I had an exchange with him: I said: ''Hi Dr Hain, On your page you introduce the idea of grommets for hyperacusis, saying surprised that they also apply for hyperacusis without perilymph fistula. Over...

Neither I. Who lives near Chicago, has insurance and so on and can schedule an appointment? Maybe we can crowdsource any questions we have for him.

The latest June 2016 update of one of the internet's main reference pages for ear issues, Timothy Hain's Chicago Dizziness and Balance site has a brief mysterious mention of the use of PE tubes for hyperacusis. It's not the statement you think it is, the one that's been around for years...
