I've been looking at what's on the net about the brain and the best easy stuff I found is called "Searching for the mind" by Jon Lieff MD. There...
Thank you Kolisar.
I've seen somewhere on this forum a set of sound recordings other than the three excellent examples by Stink, Blair 14 and Stephanie 19115 in...
Thanks Danny Boy. Very helpful BBC article. I tried to get the other references' articles but couldn't.

I love dreary, rainy, cold, windy days. We get a lot of that in England. Raiz3R is absolutely right in my opinion. The warmest I can tolerate is...
In most music there are several instruments or voices playing, often making different frequency sounds. The concept of harmony is based on the...
I play the sax and I've been getting loud noises in my right ear for years from the trumpet section! I also have T.
I'm a Christian too but belief doesn't help solve the problem of how to cure T. To find a cure we must first know what causes it at the...
Hello teacher34. I agree that T may well begin in the brain. For a reasonable complete answer to the question of what causes T please refer to...
Hi Thierry. For a reasonable complete answer to your question of what causes T please refer to the following:- The Pathophysiological Mechanism of...
I agree that T of the sort that's generated in the brain is like phantom limb pain in one way, ie it's generated in the brain. At the current...
What frequency were they using?
The first time I fired a .303 rifle in the RAF the sudden noise gave me a whistling in my right ear which lasted three day and nights. The RAF...
I agree that stem cell therapy may one day cure tinnitus and as a sufferer I welcome the idea. But I'm also aware that the signals that cause...
Why is it good that there is no cure now?
I sometimes wonder whether a period of suffering tinnitus shouldn't cause the brain's auditory neurones to enhance or depress their...
Why were you experimenting with loud noises? I got my right hearing damaged by the sudden loud noise from firing a rifle. It created a continuous...
Pulsatile tinnitus apparently means that the sound beats in time with the heart. In my dictionary the word "somatic" means "relating to the body...
I just found out that to be called pulsative the tinnitus has to beat in step with your heart, which mine doesn't.
And it isn't called pulsative unless it beats in step with your heart, which it seems yours doesn't.
Thank you Candy and GregCA. That confirms that I do not have pulsatile tinnitus. So in that case since I do have tinnitus is what I've got called...
Is Coleoptere saying that causes of deafness such as hair follicle damage of the inner ear are the only cause of tinnitus?
What is the definition used for "pulsatile" when we discuss pulsatile tinnitus? Sounds are usually very complex things, with many component...
I found an article by Dr Albert Edge of Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmity in which he thinks that stem cells...
A heart beat is two beats that occur one immediately after the other I think, isn't it? Something about the upper ventricle and the lower one both...
I get the blocked ear effect but in my case that's because I went deaf in that ear following Meniere's disease. I'm trying to find out whether...
I'm no expert but it occurred to me that if you look at the construction of the inner ear (online etc) you will notice the liquid in the 3 balance...
Thanks anyway Kathryn. Melike, it sounds like my problem but with no sound. The ENT specialist at Addenbrooke's told me that my trouble could...
I take it from the enormous number of replies that nobody knows the answer.
I get a noise in one ear when I have "nerves," probably anxiety. Loud passages in speech trigger it off. It sounds as if someone has dropped a...
JasonP, I have a noise something like rocks falling but the spacing between the pulses is wider. The audiologist told me that to try and stop it...
Very interested in your discussion. I get a noise in one ear when I have "nerves," probably anxiety. Loud passages in speech trigger it off. It...
Criminals!!!
Sorry - I'm using this reply slot as an edit, as there is no other edit facility provided. I should have said the hearing loss stayed with me for...
I first got tinnitus in my right ear when I fired an army rifle while wearing no ear defenders. I blame the army for that. A whistling stayed with...
