I feel like there is a evil team of villains going around and trying as hard as possible to limit tinnitus research and access to information about it. For instance, that Susan Shore device, if they can help us what is the f'ing hold up? All they have to do is explain how their method works and we could make our own and find relief sooner. If you know how to help a suffering person and you dont because you want to be sure that you make lots of money then you're just evil.

 

I am interested in how this plays out. I actually went through TMS for a mental health diagnosis, not tinnitus. Not sure how different the protocols would be between the two, but I didn't happen to experience the unexpected side effect of lessened or cured tinnitus. (The jury is still out on the mental health help as well, though it probably helped a bit.)
