Not sure if you plan on giving us updates or if you're gonna do the no-forum thing that TRT recommends but good luck, either way. My thoughts are...
Transparency in the medical community in general. I mean, if something works - it will get adopted immediately. I don't really know the board...
I mean transparency in general. It just seems that if something like this really worked, it would be acknowledged as a working treatment and...
I don't understand why Dr Wilden is given such a vast amount of benefit for the doubt on this forum. And the doubt is huge considering the...
The direct to english machine translation from the PDF is surprisingly readable. Google never ceases to amaze me....

This is fascinating. I wonder what makes Lidocaine alter tinnitus and if the qualifying factor can be captured. Really interesting stuff.
