Technically speaking, it is all in our head, it's generated in the brain :censored:

Placebo is one hell of a beast.

Just finished the fourth day, and I have to admit, this is by far one of the most boring things I've ever done, and I don't think I can handle another day of this, its like watching paint dry. Result wise, I don't really notice any difference in my visual snow, but my visual snow is pretty mild...

The FDA isn't always logical, you can look at another aspect, why require placebo control for hearing loss treatment? as if you're magically going to hear frequencies you physically can't after swallowing a sham..

Oh so it was probably not just my wrong sense of time but I really did miss out a few minutes as I was preparing, hope it won't harm the progress, but I find it hard to believe.

Okay, I'm with you on this, especially as I got nothing to lose, just finished session number one, went alright, really lost time perspective while doing this as I thought I'm only half way through and all of a sudden I got the finished message.

Anyone knows what's up with Visual Snow Initiative’s Visual Imagery Project (VIP) trial? They popped out of nowhere with this trial and I couldn't find any information whatsoever regarding it or any science to back it up. If it wasn't free I'd call it snake oil but quite frankly I'm just confused.

Just putting it here

Interesting, many of my problems started after Doxycycline as well.

I believe that curing tinnitus will result in curing VSS, at least for some.

But it's not about what they say, it's about what their audiogram says, raised your hand while I played a frequency you physically couldn't hear before? so it worked..

I have a question, why does this trial even need a placebo control? It's not like people are going to start hearing new frequencies due to the placebo effect...

I did the test a month after treatment, and yes, I quit the PPI's a month before re-checking. I had no pain tho so idk if I had gastritis, I had an episode of vomiting and a constant nausea, which I suffer from immensely to this day.

According to the breath test it is gone, despite accidentally taking half the daily dose of antibiotics, I do have a feeling its back tho, but gotta re-test.

The triple h. pylori had no effect on my tinnitus but my tinnitus did start after severe digestion problems, which I suffer from to this day.

I feel you, and to be honest, I don't know on Lenire that much, Frequency Therapeutics on the other hand, is a different story. Results should be out pretty soon on FX-322, and if all goes well, Tinnitus and hearing loss in general is going to be a thing of the past.

No idea who's Jastreboff, I'm just speaking for my own experience / theory.

I think it's because when you are exposed to noise, your brain adapts and turns up the "volume" or threshold to compensate for the background noise, but when that background noise is suddenly gone, your brain still didn't adapt (like when you stand near a running engine for long and then he...

I read it a while back so I had to re-read it now to refresh my memory. Apparently this woman took an antibiotic named Gentamicin which was extremely ototoxic, which damaged her Vestibular system, which in turn ruined her ability to balance, stand, walk, couldn't even follow a moving objects...

Useful information, I wonder if I do have hidden loss since I think my hearing is fine, even when hearing speech in a noisy environment, but who knows. Is there a more accurate test? No ear pain, no facial pain (lots of knocking tho), ear fullness comes randomly, like my ear is clogged up...

Honestly, I really doubt that such fall caused any real damage (unless if you're like, really old). We aren't made from glass, we are pretty "well built" and can take quite some damage, and you're hearing that from someone who has been involved in more than one motorcycle crash. IMO it's...

This device seems really familiar to the one I've read in a book named The Brain That Changes Itself: Stories of Personal Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science. The first case is about a woman who lost her "balance organ" and was always in a constant vertigo and senses like shes falling...

Update: went to the orthodontist today, he said that my that he doesn't see anything too abnormal until he noticed my resting tongue position, apparently I'm always applying constant pressure to my palate, which probably caused the jaw problems, along with an ankylosed tooth. Not sure if this...

You may be right, even though I'd suspect if it was multifactorial I would have more than one tone, but it's always one.

Hello guys, this is all pretty weird to me. This is going to be a long post, but might be a little light shedding on the condition itself since I think my case is pretty bizarre. A little background: I am a 25 y/o male, first got tinnitus, or should I say chronic tinnitus a year ago, after a...
