      Cool.

      So indeed it looks like John is in South Korea at the moment. And from the looks of it it doesn't look like he's using a VPN or the sort.

      I would be quite confident to say he's not making his trip up.

      His IP seems residential in nature.

      I'm pretty sure it's legit and he's really there.

      Sk telecom, the company I rented my wifi hotspot from, probably has bought a block of ip addresses that arent available on vpns.

      It's not residential. It's a 4g monile hotspot because I couldnt rent SIM card because I have Sprint and they slick their phones down like jerks.
      Yeah I just imagined the ~72 injections of PRP and bone marrow that I've had over the last two weeks :ROFL:.

      But seriously someone had to check this out. Plus tinnitus was ruining my life and all the research I did gave me confidence that it was at least safe.

      did you have hyperacusis defined as noise induced pain?

      did it get better?

      I have 2-3 months to see the full effects. After that time I will post audiograms. But Thursday I noticed I could here the sizzle of some pizza cheese more clearly in my right ear and the audiogram I took later that day showed a threshold shift in my right side and my tinnitus in my right ear has decreased to the point where I can sleep on it and cant really hear it, it's there, but much much lower. He focused more on my left ear the last week because it was worse and when you have your middle ear full of prp or bone marrow it's like having earplugs in so that's where I'm at. If my left ear drops to like my right ear I will be very satisfied.

      This has been the experience of a lifetime. Seoul is a really interesting place.

      Yeah I had hyperacusis. It has been better and worse at times. I dont have it right now but I cant attribute that to the treatment because of the nature of its fluctuations.

      the treatment should cure the noise induced pain, if not kill me.

      noise induced pain is worse then tinnitus.

      How do you define hyperacusis, as a burning pain, a dull ache, loudness amplification?

      Loudness amplification, with some discomfort, bordering on pain. I've never had the type of pain that I've seen others describe.

      @JohnAdams please take some pictures/video or something of the facility or treatments going on. If it is in fact legit I would be interested to see what it all looks like.

      Edit:

      When it concludes please make a brand new thread regarding the entire trip and experience.

      But is John the kinda guy that would string us all along?
      What’s the consensus of opinion?
      He wouldn’t tell us ’porkies’ - it would go against his religious principles....?

      All I did to make my tinnitus go away was get TMD treatments. JA is actually getting his cured with stem cell treatments. That's awesome and actually driving community research.

      Yeah because of decades of independant tinnitus groups, there's multiple different beliefs of how to handle tinnitus depending on where you go. Most decided that there will never be a cure, and are subconsiously probably secretly offended by people trying and succeeding where they failed. The communities don't agree because of terrible modding, but I'm glad that TT has taken the reins and is guiding the whole T community to a cure.

      I wouldnt say "cured". At least not yet. I think the best way to describe it as treated, by restoring some of my hearing loss. Like I've been saying, I still have 2-3 months to see the total results. It'll probably be more like 2 because I'm young and healthy.

      More treatments would be better but I'm about to head back to America so...

      I've had 12 days of treatments, only time will tell how effective they are in the long term. Like I said, I will take a hearing test in a couple months and compare before and after audiograms and share them.

      John - no insult intended I assure you.
      Others were doubting you, and I was attempting to oppose their doubts my friend.
      I’m truly sorry if you saw it that way....x
