Can't say that I have, but what do you have to lose.  Let us know if it works...

I, thankfully, don't suffer from tinnitus - but I think anything that may help you deal with it - and may help you keep your sanity is worth trying.

Go for it!

I'm there with ya Patti! Tinnitus rules my life.
I'm scheduled for a BAHA sometime this fall,  which may or may not help with the tinnitus, because of the different settings on the newer versions. But it is worth a try. Do you have the BAHA? or can you get one?

Let me know if you do try hypnosis.....I haven't tried that, but just about everything else...

I had my 2nd surgery (12/7 nerve transposition) at UW in Seattle, and read in the ATA newsletter that my Dr. (Jay Rubenstein) is  working on developing something (can't remember what) that is actually implanted, for tinnitus. I'm sure it will be a long time but I am keeping tabs on him!
He was an engineer, before being a MD, neurotologist, so he is brilliant in my mind.

Hang tough, >:(

Patti,
I am so sorry that you are having tinnitus issues... mine is really maddening as well. I still want to try the pneumonics, but am waiting until my 2 yr MRI to make sure that this BOOGER!!! is dead. I still would like to meet all the utah/idaho an'ers.
Hang in!!!!!
