An Operation to Make Deaf? Would It Cure Tinnitus?

@Lloyd Carter,
Thank you for your kind words..lots of love glynis

 

You've touched on the reason that it's so difficult to get a solid treatment. What you experience isn't necessarily what the next person does. I have neck related issues and can modulate the volume quite severely if I'm not careful but another may have no effect at all from the same thing. There are many causations.

I'm a Geordie, so may well be joining you there next season....

Back to the first post though, I worked with a guy who was deaf in one ear from birth and he had tinnitus on that side. Had it on his hearing side also but not as bad.

 

@Steve we're both playing poor football at the moment hahafa

Really is no way out for us T sufferers then, that sucks

 

Cutting the audiotory nerve to induce deafness would only make tinnitus worse because you are not restoring the hearing input the brain is looking for, you are abolishing it. The idea goal would be to restore hearing to prevent the faulty neuro plasticity.
