To my abobe posting I like to add this:

Since 7 years No one come up with anything that reduce
my high degree tinnitus level eighter TRT or severals Tests
MRI duplex ultrasound . The doctors could not lokalize
from where those hearthbeating sound come from
I am disabled now I cannot sleep at night or during the day
What those people are offering TRT etc. is a bullshit
their statistics are false because those doctors take patients who are suffering on mild tinnitus which
dissapear after few hours.

Sorry but you are really not correct here.  When I see people with mild
tinnitus, they receive some advice and reassurance, and sent off without TRT.
For over six years, I have evaluated and treated people with tinnitus who were
desparately seeking help, emotional, depressed, anxiety ridden, and even calm.
Without prejudice, about eight five percent of all the patients that I see who
do enter into the TRT program with me, do better.  Not cured.  Not ALL better.
Just much much better.

So. George.  Maybe you are in that fifteen percent who do not do better.  Those
are the ones that break my heart because we don't know enough to know why they
don't improve.  And most TRT providers, BTW, are not doctors, they are
audiologists and PhDs who enjoy the interaction with the patients and believe
in the work of Jastreboff.

Pulsatile Tinnitus is a very challenging problem and I do not recommend TRT for
it.  It is 99% a structural problem, and needs to be addressed by other means.
I have written an article on it on my website, if you want to look at it.
