Sorry guys for the delay in my response, I run a very busy business. My ears settled back 1-2 days after the exacerbation. My noise trauma caused...
Another update..... Today my ears are definitely the worst they have ever been in terms of tinnitus volume, discomfort, and hearing distortion...
Thanks. Putting LEDs together is very simple DC circuitry. Unlike most DC devices you need to give them a set current rather than a particular...
Within the box are two LED constant current drivers and a flashing circuit. It looks more complicated than it is in reality, I broke the screw...
I'm trialling it with a 10sec on/10sec off cycle at the moment. I've got one 940nm and one 850nm chip (who knows what is best!) and I turn the...
For anyone interested, I attached each LED chip to a heatsink: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I drilled a hole in a cheap pair of earmuffs: [ATTACH] And...
Sorry, I've been sick with a cold. These chips are around US$150 each. I just built a headset with a chip on each side and heatsink. I added a...
This is what I'm going for: http://docs-asia.electrocomponents.com/webdocs/11b1/0900766b811b1e33.pdf I'm getting one each of the highest output...
I'm not worried about power consumption, I mean a LED chip being sold with an efficiency of 7% is not a good reflection on its quality.
The LED arrays are additive to some extent because the radiation field from each chip overlaps to a large extent. I decided against the Ebay...
If anyone is interested in DIY you can get high output IR (eg 850 or 940nm) LED chips such as this:...
Thanks, I thought they looked a bit suspicious with the claimed power output, particularly when they also claim the battery lasts for hours. I...
@Bobby B What do you think of these relatively cheap higher powered devices such as:...
I don't mean a full 10+W on the cochlea alone at close range, I mean externally applied like Bobby B described. How are you going to apply your...
I agree we need to look at higher powered sources (like 10 or 20W). Partly from the above article showing low tissue penetration when you are...
I'm thinking it might be better to go more powerful, I'll see what I can find.
I agree and had been thinking of a DIY unit myself. I think the diodes sitting in the opening of the ear canal should function similar to the...
I seriously hope this is true. It seems to be helping me at 200mg 3 times a day! It's strange because I was told something very different. Bear...
I'm up to 200mg three times a day so far.
I have the same plan as you, hopefully use it for a little while and then stop and maybe it will have a lasting effect. I have noise induced...
We will see, the proof will be if you can still buy them in a few months....
They may not know if it's not been publically announced yet. I have in the past found out about cessation of medication production well before...
I'm trying to help everyone by giving them a heads up rather than depress you all. Particularly those of you who are on larger doses and want to...
From the horse's mouth, GSK.
Bugger, GSK is going to stop production of retigabine. I started 2 days ago and just starting to feel it's helping.....
I find Serc (Betahistine) in a low dose (8mg twice a day) great for feelings of loss of balance.
I've had tinnitus quite bad for 4 months now. I could accept it being present during the day time, it's like living in a world with speakers...
Thanks everyone for your help. Dave.... likewise, I feel for you too. It's frustrating that on some bad decisions there's no second chance....
It makes no difference to my tinnitus.
I got admit that with my fan plus under-pillow speaker it's still a struggle to sleep. I just ordered one of these bluetooth headband speakers:...
Thanks Lymebite for the advice, I'll give them a call
Yeah, I did wonder about that because when you plug the ears you hear the tinnitus way more and therefore concentrate on it way more.
The frequency of this tinnitus is very high, it's extremely annoying. But then, I haven't experienced other frequencies so I'm not sure what the...
Near Lismore, Northern NSW Thanks Glynis, currently my only chance of getting any sleep at all is with some noise at night to mask the tinnitus,...
I've been using a fan next to the bed and a speaker (beach noise) under the pillow. That way I've got both ears entertained no matter which side I...
It was around an hour with some AK47 as well.... sigh. I'm now protecting my ears with plugs for driving etc etc, but all probably a bit late....
Has anyone sourced Retigabine from an online international pharmacy? Here in Australia it is not imported. I can get a script no problem but I...
Hello, I'm Steve from Australia... I did some hugely unwise unprotected shooting on holiday in Asia in January and I'm now stuck with very high...
