To me hearing being damaged from an acoustic neuroma is a given,I would imagine a tumour growing and putting pressure on the nerve would most certainly do damage not to mention if the tumour is growing on the nerve itself. I would also imagine removing the tumour would do damage to the nerve...

Unkeyhole?You will have a scar left behind if that's what you mean.

Yup it's keyhole surgery,they do this routinely when it comes to acoustic neuromas.

My best guess would be keyhole surgery?Let me investigate this,one second....

Would DBS work for Hyperacusis also?Just read a paper about how the two are connected together through central gain mechanisms in the brain,my question is if they can suppress T will that also suppress H?

It was gradual according to him,slowly but surely it began to back off to where he's fully cured now. It's an amazing claim but it's just a claim without any solid proof to back him up which is the case with Chi-Kung. He didn't mention it healing his ears but he did say that he didn't take care...

85db is in regards to haircells in a healthy cochlea but this new discovery may throw all of our current guidelines out the window as they will now become redundant. These levels don't account for synapse damage and tests show that every time your exposed to loud noise like a concert you lose...

Where did you hear that?

That's perfect Cheers Lapidus.

I'm going to email them Lapidus,my New Years resolution is to move heaven and earth to do what I can that may help in finally discovering where our damage lies and what we can do about it. Any email address that I could get them on?

I wonder if I contacted them would they allow me to do that test?Might give us some insight as to what's happening in H patients ears.

I was actually talking to this man,Kevin Barry is his name and he runs a Chi-Kung class up in Dublin. Extremely nice guy but a lot of inconsistencies in his story when I was talking to him,things like how his T and H disappeared through the art of Chi-Kung and how he lived in isolation for...

Maybe their hearing just recovered with only minimal damage,nearly undetectable by themselves. That the ears need a long time to recover from the initial sound trauma and that slowly over time the nerves in the ear become less inflamed from the insult.This recovery varies from person to...

@Sen

Interesting read,thank you for that. So this raises a question,if these noise levels can damage these nerves after damage has already occurred,does that mean that a H patient will slowly but surely progress downward from even moderate sound exposures over time?It seems to be the case with a lot...

So everyday noises at low volume can increase synaptic degeneration?

Thats pretty much how I see things,for years I thought it was mainly a brain thing but this year I have completely changed my entire stance on the entire thing due to my new symptoms. My symptoms would point at something damaged or overactive in the inner ear mainly synaptic damage or neuron...

It's fun to read all this stuff when you literally have not better to do like me,my head spins with all the crap I try to squeeze in there on a daily basis lol. My T is variable,one second it's silent next thing it's screaming at me and considering I wear earmuffs nearly all day now it's a...

@Reinier I think noise induced H with or without pain are exactly the same as one another. I developed H without pain in January 2014,over two years later and I was 90% cured and back to my old self.I started getting around more noise nothing stupid mind you and the pain started shortly after...

From what I've read and believe me I've read a lot,this is what I've gathered so far. Noise damages the synapses that underly its corresponding haircell,just because these synapses are damaged doesn't necessarily mean the haircell will die as a result.Its theorised that these neurons...
