      Night 17. Slept all of 8 hours with it. As soon as I wake up the tinnitus is still there, but when I get up and moving it goes away mostly. Right now I wouldn't even know I had tinnitus if I didn't already know. I am really astounded by this it's almost comical.

      Considering how many few cases there are of people recovering from tinnitus after a year combined with my drive to cure myself and try stuff, I'd think it is more than likely that the things I am trying are in fact the reason I am recovering so well and not just a coincidence. My tinnitus is now basically a joke and is in no way a problem other than my OCD desire to want it totally gone and go back to playing drums and shoot guns.

      What I think has had the greatest impact:
      3 times daily turmeric + NAC + Glutathione
      Next to that:
      This sound therapy

      Even the slight improvements that I think I got from the PRP* injections in Korea have nothing on my more recent improvements.

      @R. David Case I wonder if it would be possible to do an assessment of whom Tinnitus Mix helped and whom it didn't help, e.g. by asking people whether it helped and asking whether their tinnitus was/is high or low pitched and left or right-sided and whether they were able to fully mask their tinnitus with the Tinnitus Mix...

      So regarding the volume, slightly under my tinnitus or above?

      Should I use some special app/player? Seems that they differ a little bit in sound.

      @R. David Case I have now the Koss headphones. I tried it in the past with different headphones but my tinnitus reacted. A couple of questions.

      1. Have you heard of people with reacting tinnitus benefiting from Tinnitus Mix?
      2. Any cases where the tinnitus worsened temporarily but the person kept going and benefits showed up later on?
      3. After how long do you think one should conclude the therapy does not work if one keeps going and has no improvement / has worsening?

      I can sleep most night with the Koss on, but I am concerned about worsening.

      Thanks in advance and thank you for making this therapy available for free. For sure it's quite original.

      You've been taking these three times a day each? At what doses? For close to a year I've been taking L-Theanine/Curcumin/NAC/Magnesium/Fish Oil nightly. Plus Ginkgo twice a day and I experience very good days 6 out of 7. Maybe I need to further stack this Tinnitus Mix.

      Each dose of
      Glutathione = 250mg, NAC = 600mg,
      Turmeric = ~2-3 grams

      ... Or is it possible to edit the sound to include more frequencies around 15-16 kHz? Can I edit it in any way?

      I hope I'm not too nosey, I just wanna try out what could help.

      10 nights down. My hyperacusis doesn’t exist anymore. I have been readjusting everything back up to civilian-levels of sound. So grateful for that.

      Seems like my very high frequency head-oriented tinnitus is gone too. Haven’t heard it in a while. My tonal tinnitus is still there, coming and going through the day. This morning I could I couldn’t find it and I was sitting in basically a soundproof chamber (20 decibels).

      Past couple of days my tinnitus has seemed a lot less intrusive. It isn’t screaming at me quite as much.

      I sleep like a baby to Tinnitus Mix now. I may use it forever instead of a sound machine. Doesn’t bother me at all.

      After this bottle of NAC and Glutathione is done I'm stopping. The turmeric is safe.

      Do you mind mentioning the brands you take?

      No offense, but since you are having success I’d like to copy what you are taking (in full understanding you are not advocating doing/taking anything and will have no liability or criticism)

      I’m super happy for you, John. I haven’t been on here long, but I’ve read enough of your odyssey to know that you’ve been through a lot to get to this point. It’s inspiring to see someone who woke up every day and grinded through this affliction and all of the treatment trials and tribulations get a payoff in the end.

      2 week update:

      My old tinnitus that went away 20 years ago never changed its tone, tonight the “new” 2 month old tinnitus suddenly changed its tone and not really for the better. It came down and is not as a high tone as usual... and a little more annoying.

      Maybe good, maybe bad... who knows.

      What would happen if someone used Neuromod Lenire for the hour the day and slept with Tinnitus Mix every night?

      Tinnitus cure found?

      That would be great, except people don't respond as you would think. Many that have eliminated their tinnitus in the test group move on with their lives and don't need tinnitus groups and it is hard to get a response. When their tinnitus was roaring they posted every day seeking help.

      It is a good sign when the Tinnitus Mix causes the tone of your tinnitus to change.

      I am just saying I am sorry you have not seen any change yet. I would continue, I have seen some take longer than others.

      That's wonderful!!! I keep telling people Tinnitus Mix has many benefits such as deeper sleep, clarity of mind, etc. It takes a few days to get used to the sounds but then when neuroplasticity changes occur in the brain/ear connections the sounds become soothing!

      Sure, I have Tinnitus Mix on a Sony UX-560 that has an on board equalizer, I turn up the highs and turn down the lows and it works BETTER than the raw file!

      Yes to questions 1 and 2, on question 3, I have had a few take 2 months of using Tinnitus Mix for results. The pattern seems to be the longer you have had tinnitus / hyperacusis the longer Tinnitus Mix takes to work. I would play during the day for 6 hours with headphones 2 inches in front of ears for 3 weeks if I were you.

      The volume should be below your tinnitus, this is not a masker!! The player does not matter as long as you keep it in WAV format (high quality).

      I will try to listen to Tinnitus Mix a few hours every day, on my high-definition headphones.
      Surely you could download a simple sound editing software from the Internet, for example Audacity. There you can rather easily change the frequencies of even the smallest sounds in the whole Tinnitus Mix. All of this can be done with the use of YouTube tutorials, in about 10-20 minutes (?)

      That is my goal here, to improve the Tinnitus Mix success rate from 50% to 90% or higher, I think we are on the brink of that with all the ideas and brain power here.

      Night 18. Still slowly improving. Before I started this I was also slowly improving in terms of tinnitus loudness, but after 3 nights of this, my noise sensitivity in my right ear disappeared entirely. I am not afraid to say that I think this noise is responsible at least for that part of it. Good job Case.

      As of right now, my tinnitus is pretty much gone. It seems to return around early afternoon for a couple hours as I've stated before, so I'll see if it does again today.
