There was a tiny press release that I think is earth shaking.
In Australia they put stem cells into dogs' eyes who were born blind.
The dogs gained eyesight.
I can't understand why this isn't the biggest news item, bigger than the

Hey all,
I've suffered from tinnitus as long as I can remember, I have no idea how I
got it in the first place at all, I'm 20 year's old nearly 21, the tinnitus
never actually bother's me only when I listen closely at night when it's

Hi, my dad has had severe hearing loss in both ears for a long time.
He is unable to afford an operation and I want to help him.  A few
years ago he was recommended to have stapes surgery to restore hearing
after having his ears checked.  I don't know much about that, but I've

A tinnitus "specialist" I went too suggested that Ginkgo Bilboa might
help. Anyone know if this is bs or why it may help? I would like some
hope---but I dont want to fool myself. On a previous I mentioned my
Tinnitus worse after an MRI I receive(while wearing earplugs). I know

I sometimes enjoy a few days of silence and then all of a sudden I nap

Try it!  Nothing to lose except a few dollars.

acupuncture is a "valuable therapeutic alternative in tinnitus"(3).

Yoli, Blue, Stevie, Kaufman, where for art thou?  Man this is a boring
a.s NG without all the old trolls.
How can anybody find enough to talk about tinnitus to even keep this NG
alive?  I have had it for about 3 years and the best thing I ever did

Any idea?

I have noticed that as I grow older my T seems to get louder and
louder.
It really is not that loud yet but I fear that as I grow old I will
lose my hearing completly and just hear the ringing.

A T patient should think positively, which means the suggestion that
you have to live with your T should be discarded strongly and doctors
that produce that advice should be reported to the responsible medical
authority or his professor.

The result from a study, be it double or triple blind, controlled or
otherwise, should be expressed in the format of 'probabilities, degree
of response, chances of success, etc.' and to do so in conjunction with
the underlying conditions surrounding a particular ill.  The result

New I may be here but certainly am no newbie in the area of Tinnitus.
I live with it quite "peacefully" and avoid loud noises as much as possible.
Left ear "hears" via cochlear implant, right ear has digital support but
