Hi @brando, Good to hear how things are progressing for you. -- Re: your tinnitus: I had a major tinnitus onset this past February, and have been frequenting a tinnitus forum since then. From what I can gather, one of the best things you can do for yourself at this stage of your tinnitus is to seek out a health care practitioner who does LLLT (Low Laser Light Therapy), also known as photomodulation.Somewhat strangely after the scans got done I've gotten a bad ear infection, wondering if the head movement has messed something up, I've had hearing loss/tinnitus in that ear for 2 weeks now..
I recently read a fairly long thread on it, particularly posts by one individual who decided to purchase a home LLLT device for about $3,000. A professional, clinical grade one would have cost about $9,000. So he had a chance to have experience with both. He said to not bother with the home devices. Go straight to a professional, as the beneficial effects are multiples greater. He believed that if he would have gone straight for that after his acoustic trauma, he would be 100% over his tinnitus today.
Of course, your tinnitus may clear up as soon as your infection clears up as well. Drops of diluted apple cider vinegar in the ears has been reported to be very helpful by some on the tinnitus forum. -- Best!
