Maybe a month or two? I can't really remember, I've tried to get on with my life and forget about T :)

Sorry to bump an old post but I have this too? I'm going through a spike at the moment where my low-frequency tinnitus is much louder than normal....

Hmm, we'll see anyway!

From your experience with people you know, are they just not receiving emails back or are they being emailed that they are not being accepted? I'm...

I've applied two weeks ago and still haven't received an email back.. I wonder what that means?

I've had T for two years now. I think I might give it a go!

DONE!

This is really interesting stuff! It's important to stay positive with T and this is something that gives hope to people. I remember when news of...

1 UK unit is 1/3 of a pint of lager of 5-6% ABV

It was the 1975 in this venue. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3Arena I was in the tiered seating section!

I went to one on Wednesday night, wore musicians ear plugs, tinnitus was fine the next day!

I've found that my new sound is significantly quieter than it was when I originally made this post, hopefully it's improving!

I'm 21 and 18k is where it cuts off using my Audio Technica ATH M40X headphones on Markku's link.

Great to hear Cristian! I'm really happy to hear you're feeling better! I'm going through a spike at the moment and your post has really helped,...

Went to see a nurse today and she said the wax is starting to soften after two days of ear drops. I've also found a place that does microsuction...

Did you soften the wax prior to syringing?

Do you think just using ear drops on their own would work to clear out the wax? I've started using Cerumol.

So you think syringing may not damage my ears further? I'm still really apprehensive about it honestly.

Wow thanks for all the advice! Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to afford a private ENT appointment so I think I'll just try ear drops at home...

Apparently the ear with the new sound is packed up with wax? I've been given ear drops and I think they'll be getting syringed this week. Do you...

Not yet unfortunately. :(

You're right Glynis, I'm just feeling a bit desperate at the moment. I just want this spike to subside, I'm hoping it will over the coming...

When I first tried it I was on 50mg ONCE a day haha! It depends on what your doctor says but I would suggest trying around 100mg three times a day!

Haha! In all seriousness though, as much as I love the TT community, getting away from here helped me forget about my T originally, for the first...

Has anyone experienced spikes before? I'd love to know! :)

After a year of not caring, the almighty T is back! Let's get through this.

I haven't gone back to the doctor since my RTG ran out. Yeah my T is back to baseline.

I often had a few beers some nights when on 50mg RTG, didn't have negative affects personally.

3/4 depending on the day. It went down to 2 on RTG 50mg once a day. I'm going to get some more off my doctor as he's willing to prescribe me it...

Haven't updated in a while. Just letting everyone know I'm not taking RTG anymore. T is at a 3, baseline.

It was at a 4/4.5.

Still on 50mg once a day. T is still at a 2/3-10.

I'm really not interested in reading people's argumentative debates about attitudes on this thread. Stick to retigabine please.

I woke up this morning having taken my only 50mg dose 12 hours before (taken at 8pm, woke at 8am) and my T was at a 1.5/2 - 10, it was...

Day 5 of 50mg once a day! Head noise is reduced, T is at a 2/10right now, it will change back to my 4/10 in the morning but still, this feels nice. :)

I think John means that it's available in several different countries worldwide.

Day 4 of taking 50mg once a day. I've been taking it at about 8pm (9:54pm here right now) and today is the first day I've seen actual (probable...

It sounds like you're doing well all things considered! Perhaps you should think about slowly increasing your dose and seeing the effect it has.

As I'm only on 50mg once a day, it's very hard to say. No noticeable change at the moment, I'll see how the next week goes before thinking about...

I'm glad to hear @Danny Boy is having good results at 1200, that's really really encouraging!

I'd think that's a normal response to be honest. How did you obtain trobalt do you mind me asking?

What side effects are you experiencing at the moment? Hope you get better Danny, seems like you really need it, we're hoping for you. :)

In what ways exactly?
