Janice - 06 Oct 2007 04:24 GMT My son's g/f was cured of tinnitus by accupuncture. She complained of it quite badly and hasn't heard it for at least two years now.

The negative attitude is - that nothing worked for me so there is nothing anybody can do....give up - if there isn't scientific evidence it can never work. - be scared of any method, technique or supplement your doctor didn't give you - be afraid of anything you do not understand. How has religion survived?
Funny, I remember the hippies in the 60s telling the world about the ozone layer depletion and scientists telling the public it was complete crap.
I remember the crazy nutcases telling people about dairy allergies and food allergies in general. Doctors were taught in medical schools this was mental illness.
I remember telling my brother to see an Accupuncturist for his problems. He said "My problem isn't imaginary and I don't need a real doctor". He died.
I guess, and I tell real people this all the time: I don't care what your health beliefs are. If you are getting a certain health care style and it isn't working, try a different philosophy. Forget the nay sayers, go help yourself and stop whining.I find most people with cronic problems swear they have tried everything and they are helpless but when quized, nothing has been given a fair chance. That two days of vitamin pills are always a waste of money. Or as the chem/cut Doctors are taught. "expensive urine"

So I asked her what caused tinnitus. She said:" Well, you have to have your ear examined first, and if nothing wrong is found, you have to go one step further to have your nerve and brain checked".
She is a STUDENT only. And even a student is able to tell that the ear is not separated from the rest of the body such as the nerve and the brain. Years ago when I complained about the nerve discomfort in my head, both the 'habituation' doctors of America here in this ng and the fancy doctors in the deluxe medical clinics in Hong Kong were pretty impatient with my suggesting strongly a possible connection between my nerve and my ear. To them, if nothing wrong is found in one's ear, it would simply mean there is nothing wrong with the other parts of the body that 'could be' related to the ear. And these are DOCTORS... and these DOCTORS spent 7-8 years in medical schools to become ear 'specialists'.
Well, perhaps if Dr. Nagler, Dr. Frank, Dr. Murray Grossan and Dr.Jim Chinnis of America were invited to teach in China, they should become students there first before taking up teaching.....LOL

If you're saying that specialists in the USA think that there is no causal link between the brain and the auditory nervous system, then I think you're under a massive misapprehension, you might want to read this...

If you were such a smart native English speaker, how come you missed the word 'are' in "If your so smart why are you traveling by bus? "?
I think it is medication time for you.

Sorry, I should have written, "you're". I apologise, I write too quickly, which is unfair and disrespectful.
What is your point here? I have to say that all the doctors I have visited have been very encouraging with regards to acupuncture. Again I would be surprised if there is a regular here who has not tried it.
If you want to see how widely accepted acupuncture is in the UK you might find this article more than interesting despite what it has to say about the effectiveness on tinnitus.

The point was that practically all the high-tech fancy doctors I visited focused on the ear for causes of my tinnitus. When I asked about the nerve, they would either say 'NO" or tell me to talk to the people in the neurology department. These are not 'peasant' herb doctors but doctors who graduated from places such as the University of Edingburg.
I have to say that all the doctors I have

Again

I think you enjoy trading insults, and it just might be the reason you come here. You say that your tinnitus is much reduced, so why come here, what is the big deal for you? We have all read your views on GB and acupuncture. I think the majority of people who come to this group are probably very bright, well educated, and more importantly very concerned about their condition.
No country has so many leading universities as the USA, 17 out of the top 20 are US, and that is the conclusion of a Chinese study. The Metropolitan Opera house has been the worlds best for close to a century. Silicon Valley, and the Bay Area is testament to the practical level of intelligence that exists in the US. Their contribution to literature is immense, think of Bellow, Eliot, Grey, Plath, Irving, etc.,
Some of the finest Movies have been American, rather than compile a list you might want to check out the following; http://www.imdb.com/chart/top
The majority are US films.
I think this sort of abusive posting is best done elsewhere. Many come here in real distress, some will be more than scared, they should not have to read silly allegations about their education system, or have their country belittled by someone looking for a petty argument.

You have not even asked me to define the parameters of my use of 'hillbillies'. Hillbillies refer to people like yourself who like to run away with a word or a phrase you find disagreeable in other people's posts and you afterwards like to speak on behalf of the collectives---in a way that is reminiscient of "this is what other people say about you" in the mannerism of the uneducated islanders-- and do so righteously and with dignity like an old dinosaur.
jrw - 14 Oct 2007 18:25 GMT I will ignore the insulting nature of your remarks. No dictionary defines hillbilly in the manner that you do. Just in case you don't know, the Cambridge Dictionary definition of the word is:
hillbilly noun [C] US OLD-FASHIONED DISAPPROVING a person from a mountainous area of the US who has a simple way of life and is considered to be slightly stupid by people living in towns and cities.
In no way was I definitive in describing the collective, or would you like me to post a definition of the word 'probably' for you.
Please explain this paragraph...
"The people in UK are exposed to a bigger variety of intellectual substance such as that from Europe than those hillbillies whose only source is Hollywood movies."
I doubt the meaning is lost on other posters. You are here to bait. Which is a shame considering the nature of the group. Since your tinnitus has recovered to such an extent, you might consider finding some other hapless newsgroup to share your opinions. Surely your work here is done.

The person who wrote the following is a typical example of a 'hillbilly'"
"If your so smart why are you traveling by bus? The Mercedes is in the shop?
Best regards
John " ----------------------------- A hillbilly thinks anyone in a big fancy car must be a smart person while those on public transport must not be smart. This illusion is sometimes carried by the Hollywood movies. Mind you, the influence of the Hollywood movies is everywhere, in the US mainland and amongst the islanders of the world.

Your job here is to prove a 'Hillbilly theory' which espouses that smart people don't take public transportation but have to be on fancy cars.

First off, mine was a humourous dig at a person who seems to think that he is oh so clever. A person that can divine the speech cadences of an islander as opposed to those who live on the mainland. That he can denigrate the one man on here who most of us come on to read. That he is happy to use the most transparent and tangential syllogism to make the most obtuse points. (I hope you appreciate the humour in the last sentence). Actually I respect those who choose to travel by public transport.

I think you are a lovely hillbilly from UK. Inspite of your being a UK hillbilly, you do have an intelligency quotient higher than many ear specialists in the UK and America.

And the primary factor was psychology. It's not the ringing that was the problem, it's how I reacted to the ringing that was the problem. So in order to get over my tinnitus, I had to fix my brain - not fix my ears.
