I suspect there is going to be a whole lot of formerly deaf mice running around with perfect hearing before we get our hearing fixed :)

5 years in with tinnitus due to noise induced hearing loss in the 4 kHz range. Someone yelled in my ear the other night and caused a massive...

My hearing loss & tinnitus tone is at exactly 4 kHz. I wonder if FX-345 will help, or if 4 kHz will be to close to the edge of the drug's...

If fixing tinnitus was as simple as just taking Ketamine, MDMA or mushrooms then we would all know about it by now. De Ridder is pairing the drug...

Neither PIPE-505 nor OTS-413 are letting people into their trials who have "bothersome tinnitus". To someone waiting for a tinnitus cure, that...

I notice that they only talk about speech intelligibility. Have they given up on improving the actual hearing thresholds?

It's like a Chinese finger-trap. The more you try and solve it and the more you care about it, the harder it is to forget about it and start...

Of course I don't know. Neither do you :) This is all speculation. Both positive and negative speculation work together to help us get closer...

If chocolate protected one's hearing to any serious degree I would be able to hear a whisper at 1000 yards :)

Been here from the beginning. They had lots of PR a while ago but there's no denying that they have gone quiet recently. I've launched several...

So here's the good news. I've been in exactly your situation 5-6 times. I go someplace a little noisy (bar/restaurant/movie). I measure 80db....

The irony is, so far the only "silence" that MuteButton has created for anyone is in their press releases and product updates for the last 6...

I've gone from noticing/thinking about my Tinnitus 500x per day to between 5-15x per day. Some days I forget about it altogether. But... it took...

With no objective way to measure, it's hard to tell the difference between actually louder and noticing the same level of loudness more. So I am...

I notice it more when I meditate. So I don't anymore.

Neither of the 2 testimonials are people with hearing loss. I hope that the next person who comes forward has a bit of noise-induced hearing loss...

This sounds good... of course there is no way to measure the volume other than perception. But I think that perhaps the difference is, someone...

TRT claims it helps 90% of the people who do it. The interview says there is a clinically significant effect on 67%. Can someone help me by...

Glynis, although I don't know you, I can feel the warmth and compassion of your personality radiating forth from your many posts here. It seems...

Eye patching is effective only up until about 12 years of age. I did it myself when I was 4-6 years old and it brought my eye up from blind to...

That condition is called amblyopia. I have it too. It has been considered untreatable in adults until recently. There is now new work being...

When they finally cure noise induced hearing loss and associated tinnitus, I wonder how many people will go back out to bars and concerts and give...

Actually the FDA hasn't approved it due to potential cardio-vascular issues. It's used in plenty of other places though...

Just to complete the internet documatation on this, it's now been a couple of weeks and my hearing test value at 4000hz has returned to baseline!...

Here is another thought... If the only positive excitation of the fusiform cells depends on input from Inner Hair Cells and negative excitation...

I loved the video but I see an inconsistency. If the auditory nerve input is the only input that contributes to the (+) positive excitation of...

Don't like this. It indicates to me that there are damaged structures in the ear sending out a bad signal. If that's the case then just growing...

To be honest, I knew that tinnitus was a rare side effect of the drug... But it was supposed to be less dangerous than Ibuprofen (which I use on...

I agree. Since then I have experimented a bit with natural supplements and am currently trying Fish Oil. It might help a bit, but nothing like...

Not logic so much as experimental observation. The first time I took prednisone was for an issue unrelated to my original acoustic trauma and...

Maybe not entirely true. I have experimental evidence! There have been 3 times that I have tried going on 60+mg of prednisone per day for a few...

Why is it outdated? What is replacing it?

Got the puffy face but I never felt like it affected my emotions or thinking. Little rough on the stomach too as I recall...

No... never heard of it... have you tried it for your T?

Prednisone reduces my T too... but only at >=60mg per day. Too high for regular use. I have tried natural anti-inflammatory such as Omega-3 fish...

April 2016 - Initial onset after exposure to loud noise during sleep. Tinnitus mostly in right ear but some in left. July 2016 - Hearing tests...

When I was tapering and at 30mg per day my Tinnitus came back to full strength. Only while 60-80mg did it become muted.

Maybe... I took prednisone 3 times in 6 months. The first was for a week, followed by 2 weeks of tapering off, the next 2 times I only took it...

Is there a location requirement? I am outside the US but can fly in perhaps :)

60mg of prednisolone has always muted my spike within 24 hours after starting it. (tried it 3 times, same result each time).

Anyone know how severe the hearing loss has to be? 55 dB at 4 kHz enough? Or do you need to actually be to the point where you are reading...

Don't be so USA centric. Any other country in the world can research something like this without waiting for the FDA. I nominate India. They...

Assuming Jeff Karp is at Frequency, maybe someone could email Jeff and let them know about these guys. Perhaps they could fund their research in...

Anyone seen this video on small molecule research. Part of what they are talking about sounds similar to Frequency Therapeutics... [MEDIA]

Hopefully anyone who does this for hearing loss will be able to show before and after audiograms to demonstrate measurable improvement.

Tried a hearing aid in an audiologists office for 10 minutes. They were calibrated to match my 60db hearing loss notch at 4khz. The T was...

I don't get this. You see I am somewhat habituated now. Most days in the last few months I only notice my T 5-10 times... instead of 500-1000...

Ouch... this really hurts the case that restoring hearing through something like Frequency Therapeutics will also cure tinnitus.

FYI, 30mg did nothing for my T, had to be over 60mg... which is nothing you would ever want to do as a long term therapy.

I took 60mg per day for 2 days. The first time it was prescribed by an ENT, the next time I just used my left over pills. I can't remember...

I am 47. I have had my T for 2 years. It's really only in the last 2 months that I have come to a point where I can go most of the day without...

I got my Tinnitus about 2 years ago. I have hearing damage at 4000hz (it is reduced by 45db - considered moderate), and that is where my tone is....

I found that taking 60mg+ per day of prednisolone cut my T way down after 1 day. When I stopped after 2 days, it reverted to baseline. I did...

When I start to worry more than usual that my T is getting louder, it kindly obliges me by getting louder.

I noticed that when on high doses of Prednisone my T was reduced so I tried to find a natural anti-inflamatory to mimic the effect. Around the...

I don't know about Affichem.. they have 3 products... skin tanning, anti-cancer and hearing loss. Each one of those is huge enough to entirely...
