During a recent exam by my ENT, I asked him whether stem cell research
might some day produce a cure for tinnitus.  He told me that he had
been studying this quite a bit and feels the related area of Human
Growth Factors could very well result in a cure for this malady and
predicts this will come within the next 10 years.  Has anyone else
heard or read anything about this?  I Googled HGF and came up with
several hits linked to scientific studies, but none of these
specifically cited tinnitus.
