Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Tinnitus / July 2007The ethnocentrism of the Anglo-American medical establishment in the treatment of tinnitus.
"You'll have to learn to live with it", is something that patients are told from time to time by doctors who believe perhaps that effective treatment doesn't exist or, having tried tablets or infusion therapy, that all options have been exhausted. http://www.hbo-freiburg.de/en/tinnitus.html ============================ The doctors referred to above reminds me of the American ENT doctors mentioned by the American patients in ALT from time to time. On 7/8/07 8:09 PM, in article 1183950584.422697.32570@i13g2000prf.googlegroups.com, "fyfpoon@gmail.com" > "You'll have to learn to live with it", is something that patients are > told from time to time by doctors who believe perhaps that effective [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > The doctors referred to above reminds me of the American ENT doctors > mentioned by the American patients in ALT from time to time. How did the hyperbaric and O2 infusions do for you? Did your tinnitus disappear? > On 7/8/07 8:09 PM, in article > 1183950584.422697.32...@i13g2000prf.googlegroups.com, "fyfp...@gmail.com" [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > How did the hyperbaric and O2 infusions do for you? Did your tinnitus > disappear? No, it did not disappear but it did cut down the volume. By the time when I went for this treatment, my T was already an old T. But I do know one person whose T was _completely_ cured after going for this combination of treatment. He went for this treatment AS SOON AS his T was diagnosed by his ENT doctor(within a week). Just imagine how many newbies are there who so unfortunately wandered into ALT and missed the chance for a cure because they subscribed to the habituation philosophy of the idiot doctors and patients who are mostly Americans. Easy there. There are some aspects of USanians that I do not like also but that does not make them idiots. Many are very nieve and clodes minded in the thr rest of the world but not idiots. Habituation is a valid technique and better than crying for the rest of the year. I paints hope. > Just imagine how many newbies are there who so unfortunately > wandered > into ALT and missed the chance for a cure because they subscribed to > the habituation philosophy of the idiot doctors and patients who are > mostly Americans. > Easy there.

"Won't tinnitus or acute hearing loss get better without treatment? Don't rely on it! There is widely divided opinion amongst experts as to the probability of the condition healing or improving without treatment. The president of the German Tinnitus League, Elke Kn?r, believes that this probability is often overestimated." I tend to subscribe more to the views of Elke Knor, the president of the German Tinnitus League, than to Dr. Naglier, the president of ATA. Make sure you get your facts straight before you start spreading them on the internet. Dr Nagler NOT been president of ATA for a long time.

He was at least ONCE...... That he was chosen to take up that post reflects the medical mentality of the people that chose him. It is like choosing the president of a country. Bush is not in the White House by mistake. He was chosen by the people. > Elly > [quoted text clipped - 44 lines] > > - - I thought he would be spending lots of time in prison by now. > Make sure you get your facts straight before you start spreading > them [quoted text clipped - 48 lines] >>the German Tinnitus League, than to Dr. Naglier, the president of >>ATA. > I thought he would be spending lots of time in prison by now. Why? Dr. Naglier sounds like a perfectly decent fellow to me. He can be mistaken of course but I don't think he is wicked at all in any sense. Am I wrong about him? > > Make sure you get your facts straight before you start spreading > > them [quoted text clipped - 55 lines] > > - -
