      Why don't you talk about the COVID-19 scam if you are so passionate about fighting scammers?

      Phony.

      Is that supposed to be sarcastic/mocking?

      If so, it just shows a brainwashed person. The joke's on you.

      This was just published a few days ago. The Universe at it's largest scales could have been shaped like spaghetti strings, a spider web, a dome, or just space confetti everywhere. But yet for some odd reason it just happens to look like a endless neural network.

      Despite the substantial difference in scale between the two networks (more than 27 orders of magnitude), their quantitative analysis, which sits at the crossroads of cosmology and neurosurgery, suggests that diverse physical processes can build structures characterized by similar levels of complexity and self-organization.

      I attacked Phytage Labs make making a covid 19 cure claim, here.



      This forum is not to be used as a scam exposure place, and I can only focus on tinnitus/hearing scams here.

      Did they directly imply a treatment for noxacusis?

      Why would you laugh at @weab00? I wish you were speaking the truth, Michael. It's more that people are frustrated with you not acknowledging science, research or modern advancements in this field.

      Reactive tinnitus is a real thing, more accepted within the research community than among the clinicians, but many clinicians also consider it valid.

      And your posts in @Orions Pain's thread were deleted because a) she as OP requested the derailment to be cleared up, and b) you have this tendency to come into many of these threads and repeat the same content & behavior (which usually ends up in your self-confirmation that you're right, those who have a different viewpoint to yours haven't had tinnitus and hyperacusis long enough, aren't veteran enough to know better, and you wishing them goodbye).

      It's honestly quite tiring. I don't usually get involved in these things with you. Last time I did, you didn't take any of it into account, but brushed me off.

      Like how about the following? I suppose in your mind Bryan Pollard isn't knowledgeable enough in these matters either?

      Below taken from:
      Tinnitus Talk Podcast: Transforming Hyperacusis Research — Bryan Pollard

      23:57 What is reactive tinnitus?

      Hazel:
      So, we’ll get back more to research later but just a final question on definitions. You mentioned briefly as well that you experience ‘reactive tinnitus’ and we know a lot of people with tinnitus talk about this and also people with tinnitus who have not been diagnosed or don’t define themselves as hyperacusis patients but they will, nevertheless, talk about how certain sounds ‘trigger ’their tinnitus; make their tinnitus louder temporarily. I don’t know if this is a formal term or not, but people call it ‘reactive tinnitus’. So,would you consider that to be actually a form of hyperacusis?

      Bryan:
      Well, ‘reactive tinnitus’ is an accepted term amongst most of the Research Community. It’s not as strongly accepted by clinicians so there is an interesting, small discrepancy there, but many do accept it although they do give it slightly different titles. Having attended many Research Conferences, I have heard a number of talks that refer to this and I would personally keep it under the tinnitus category, just as a sub-type of tinnitus and I think it is one that likely follows a similar mechanism as those whose hyperacusis gets worse with loud sounds because they frequently go together, not for everyone, but for those who do have hyperacusis and have tinnitus, many find that these cycles of what become elevations in their pain associated with loud noises they were recently around there were also elevations in their tinnitus at the same time. So, I would propose that there are likely similar mechanisms at work in both.

      Yooo.

      The gods have spoken.

      I sentence you to TRT jail, @Michael Leigh.

      How is it possible to churn out so much BS day in, day out that you actually get the admin of the site to take a stance against you?

      You are picking out one side comment of mine to challenge, which is not even central to my argument, and conveniently ignoring the main substance of my message. My point, in case it was not clear, is that you should not be claiming to be the only holder of the truth, when many of your claims are not substantiated by science.

      This is Michael Leigh on the subject of Bryan Pollard's invaluable work:

      "He cannot teach me anything about tinnitus or hyperacusis and I'm referring to when these conditions are brought on by exposure to loud noise."

      His arrogance knows no bounds...

      Don't bother, he doesn't believe in science. Even researchers are inferior earthlings compared to him in his eyes. He's ignorant and doesn't care to see the light. I guess he will be left in the dust like buggy whip makers someday soon.

      What have you said? All you did was tell Markku that you do not wish to engage in such topics. Respond to his central point.

      I mean, this is the same dude who proudly stated that science has no place in the conditions of tinnitus or hyperacusis.

      At this point Michael Leigh is just the weird flat-earther of the forum. Anyone who tries to engage with him in good faith - well, you have both my respect and sympathies.

      I will always engage with someone that shows manners and respect. I have said it before and I will say it again so it is abundantly clear. I'm not here to engage in a slanging match because that's not who I am.

      If you have to believe in it, it isn't science.

      In any case, is this argument about the need to protect one's ears, if one gets tinnitus or hyperacusis spikes following being exposed to noise?
