Hi Jason,
I haven't tried t-gone, but you might find some stories in the archives of the yuku tinnitus support message board. Or look under the "snake-oil" topic.
I can say I do remember reading one story about a guy (i think on myspace) saying he recieved relief from t-gone.
I applaud you for the way you deal with these companies.
good luck

Hi Guys
From what I have read over a ten year period not a single person has written that T-Gone helped their tinnitus. On the contrary those who tried it felt ripped off. Personally I would'nt waste any time or money on it.

T-Gone did not help me a bit. I took it for three months. Also Tinnifix.

Hey - thanks for the comments so far. I would be delighted to hear of others experiences. Currently there is very little information on this company except their very comprehensive website, which only presents one side.

By documenting our own experiences, I hope that new sufferers of T will be able to get a balanced view of T-Gone when they perform a search on this company At the moment all you get is their own website and I want our voices to be heard to.

I have written to T-Gone and asked them to engage in this process but no response so far.

Thanks and do keep posting to help others if you have actually tried T-Gone.

Jason

Hi guys : here's my open letter to T-Gone asking them to participate. We shall see what happens.

Dear John

Further to my email of 15 October, I would like to direct you to the following discussion page:

http://dailystrength.org/c/Tinnitus/forum/5067785-tgone-post-help-others

I am asking tinnitus sufferers around the world to report their own experiences of using T-Gone products, since a Google search on 'T-Gone' today produces little beyond your own site. I am posting this request to all other online locations where tinnitus sufferers meet.

As I mentioned in my previous email, my objective is to help provide my community with the widest range of information possible, I especially want to help new sufferers who are just starting out in researching tinnitus, without them having to rely on the "fake" review sites that are out there today. Many of these appear to be nothing more than money-making scams.

The first responses regarding T-Gone on both Daily Strength and rnid.org.uk are proving overwhelmingly negative. This includes people who have been appalled by your customer service and refunds policy, let alone the poor efficacy of T-Gone itself.

Since T-Gone market quite aggressively to our community I would like to bring you in to our discussion.

The first and most important request I am making is for you to release customer testimonials. Since your website claims to have so many satisfied customers I am sure you will have no difficulty in providing the details of say, 5, satisfied customers to begin with who are willing to be contacted by me directly.

My long term objective is to have a permanent posting on every tinnitus forum around the world with actual user feedback on products like T-Gone, Yale Audio and the various e-books you can download. Obviously it is in your interests to ensure this view is balanced is reported and I therefore encourage you to respond positively.

Regards


Jason Bradley

Pls note: this email will be posted on Daily Strength, rnid.org.uk and Yahoo tinnitus groups - as will your response.

Hi jason
I have tried t-gone 2 Step Tinnitus &Immune Formula for 3 months and although it has not reduced my noise levels all the time i am finding i am having some good days.There is a very informative book published by ellen on the website which makes a lot of sense to anyone first suffering from this dreadful complaint.I have re-ordered another 3 months of this treatment and will keep you posted.
Best regards
espana

Hi again

Just noticed this site with actual customer testimonials totally trashing T-Gone:

http://www.businessreporter.net/category/homeopathic-remedies-16-1.html

For people who are suffering with T, I believe these customer experiences are a sickening insult to injury.

Can anyone who's an expert on Daily Strength suggest how we can find a permanent home for our actual customer feedback. I'm worried as this thread dies new sufferers may not get to hear the full range of experiences with T-Gone.

Cheers - Jason

Most of the T-Gone, ClearTinnitus, and similar homeopatic remedies doesn't work. My ENT explained that the 30% of the people will find relief with a placebo. If T-Gone or another substances like this one report succes over this 30% placebo effect, then that means that this actually works. I just threw my money on the garbage can with no results.

Thanks for posting, Mich. I'm so angry that you wasted money on this. What angers me most though is that these people are feeding off the fact that we are all desperate. When I read the stories on here of successful and happy people who develop tinnitus and find that their jobs, love life, social life and mental health are changed, it makes me so angry that any company could try and steal money from us.

I don't know how the people involved can live with themselves.

At least I know that Khama will pay them back.

Jason

Forgive my cynical self here, but even though these products (t-gone, sona-rx, arches, etc...and thousands of other plastic bottled snake oil remedies for countless other ailments)don't really help: doesn't their advertising on these pages keep these pages up for us? Please correct this if this is wrong...

It's not always true you get what you pay for. I've gotten a wealth of knowledge and support from this site and if you checked my check book log, there's no mention of Daily Strength there.

I've heard that Shakespheare did most of his writing on cocaine or opium? Again, this could be wrong but if not, so what?...??

John I think you're right that the ad revenue from these guys does support this board, but if you go outside of this Tinnitus section I imagine it's the big pharma and health companies that actually contribute most of the ad revenues.

Besides I just want people to have maximum information and a balanced view. I have to say that virtually every person who has experienced t-gone say it's a total con. I'd be delighted if others would post saying it has really worked for them. I consider it to be a bit like cigarette advertising. It's not illegal to sell them, but everyone accepts their should be a big health warning on the front of the packet.

Started taking Ginkgo a few months ago. Still can't find my damn keys half of the time (and no, it didn't help with the ringing either).

Yea I was a sucker for this kind of stuff when I first got T ten months ago. After the ENT said I'm stuck with this, I was desperate so I shelled out the bucks. I didn't care, I just wanted to get better.

Then I joined this group and read postings on this and similar stuff and I thru out the bottle.

I really never gave it a chance, but I decided to believe everyone's experiences with this stuff over the claims made by the product.

Since that time people who don't have T have told me to see a Physical Therapist, Chiropractor. Cranial Sacral Therapy, and most recent start a regiment of another product of pills. This product says "it is a specially formulated capsule to be taken as an aid to hearing health and ringing in the ears associated with tinnitus". Does anyone think I should pursue any of the above?

As for my Tinnitus, I'm beginning to conclude it came from excessive noises related to concerts, I-pod and sporting events. It may also have been related to whiplash or TMJ. In any event I have it.

I have learned the best way to deal with it is to protect ears, stay away from the things that trigger it, get adequate rest, exercise and keep positive attitude.

Actually in a very deliberate insidious way, it has gotten easier to deal with. The tinnitus is intermittent and my number of bad days have lessen and usually don't seem so extremely irritating. I believe the body is doing the fighting for me.

When I had Tinnitus from March to June this year I admit I would have been conned by any seller claiming they have the remedy.

But finding out from ENTs, my hearing is better than most stopped me from searching.
During those 4 months I also sorted out some other health issues, then the ringing was gone.

Hey
Special FX

I'm so pleased to hear your tinnitus has improved. I've been reading your past messages, you mention you have different kinds of sounds. Have these all disappeared?

Are you able to share what health issues you cleared up? Was it just the dental work?

Thanks - Jason
