@ritanofsinger , hello again!
No, I have not. Like you, they are scams. My audiologist once offered some experimental hearing aids that were supposed to cancel the noise I was hearing, but I have not taken her up on that. She, and other sources, say that it is caused by a hearing loss of a certain frequency, and the brain is trying to compensate for the loss of that frequency by producing it. (?) I don't think they really know for sure what causes it.
@ritanofsinger,
TIPS on using available features of this forum:
Notice the icons next to every posting.
--> The "@" icon - If you want someone like me to be notified that you are talking to them directly in the group click the "@" icon next to their post. It will send me an email that you want me to see your message in the group. Otherwise, I might not ever notice it.
--> The "bubble" icon - Click this icon to include a quote from someone's post. Highlighting some text from a posting will copy just that text. Clicking the bubble without highlighting will copy the entire posting. That is how I quoted you in the box above this reply.
--> "envelope" icon - Click this icon to send a personalized message to that person that no one else will see. (That is how I sent you a private message.)
Hope this helps.
ritanofsinger said:MezaJarJarBinks - have you clicked on any of those ads that claim to know how to stop tinnitus? I haven't because I know that they want to sell something and my doctor thinks it's a scam. Do you have the cicadas noise all the time or is it connnected to some activity? Does it affect your hearing otherwise?
