The ringing in my ears is so loud it deserves to be called a scream. It overpowers most ambient sounds and makes conversations impossible unless I can see their lips.
I haven’t been to a concert yet where they played loud enough for me to not hear that screaming.
Tinnitus makes up a fraction of my overall VA disability.
“Now, using mice, we’ve found a specific brain circuit involving serotonin that goes straight to the auditory system, and found that it can induce tinnitus-like effects,” says neuroscientist Zheng-Quan Tang of Anhui University in China.
“When we turned that circuit off, we were able to ameliorate the tinnitus significantly. This gives us a much clearer picture of what’s going on in the brain – and points toward new possibilities for treatment.” Tang wants to cut my circuit off?
Interesting...
I thought it was a follow-up to the Cold War number stations...
The post-Cold War humming stations...
Guess I’ll stop trying to decode the messages...
Progress towards a cure?
Still 0.00%.
I read the study and I noticed that they looked people who were taking “Z” drugs, I was specifically looking for that cause I took some Zolphidem for a while and developed tinnitus I immediately stopped and a few months later it went away thankfully
My tinnitus is linked to gunfire.
Or, it could be linked to running a hot loop in front of a towed 155mm battery when the base piece fired Charge 5 White Bag!
When mine ratchets up if I slowly turn my head in different directions I can get it to tone down if I hat the right spot but I have Eagle Syndrome.. my styloids are probably mechanically causing a problem.
Also for the few of you that have had the right genetic tests done look to see if you have a cyp2d6 issue. It is involved with toxins in the brain according to some reports
