Above our the websites for the two doctors.
Is Dr.Stubberman's therapy better because he used a so called "neuronavigational" approach?
What is the cost with Dr. Stubberman for the whole treatment?
Thank you, and its great you are telling us about this.
Please keep us updated, I am very interested.
I mean people here try different experimental drug cocktails...right?
Is it because of the higher cost involved?
Dr. Stubberman procedure is more accurate than the doctor in san diego.
The price has recently dropped, but there is a 3 to 6 month waiting list of other tinnitus patients that are in line for treatment.
In san diego there is no waiting list.
To be honest with you, there are allot of people who have had this procedure done thoughout the world.
At UCLA the presentation for TMS was fantastic.
There were patients that had this procedure done. One person went from a 7 down to 1.5.
And he had severe hearing loss, tinnitus vertigo, and depression.
What we are seeing, that once the tinnitus comes down, it seems to be staying that way.
Another girl had severe tinnitus she received a 70% reduction in her tinnitus.
In my heart I truly believe that TMS and micro transponders will be the two leading tinniuts treatments.
After my two consultations I will keep you updated.

I'm in VA and searched nearby - VCU has a TMS center, of course they don't say a word about tinnitus on the webpage.
I'll call this week and inquire more. Guess the question is if the protocol for T is different than for TMS's other uses - depression etc.
Not that it wouldn't be useful for that too in my case, and probably others here. Hard to not be depressed waking up to this everyday.
Best wishes with this, will be watching.

TMS is just now becoming an accepted method of treatment for depression. It's still a very experimental treatment for tinnitus. I believe there are only two doctors in my state that use these and only one of them is willing to try it on tinnitus. To my knowledge he has only tried it on 3 patients and has gotten mixed results. The cost is also very high. I think $10,000 to $20,000 for a series of treatments. If long term success was guaranteed I'd take out a loan and do it.
The think the bottom line is, wait until I complete my 25 week session.
I am 100% for sure going through with this therapy.
And I am pretty sure that will be going with Dr. Stubberman.
I am on the waiting list, so after my consultation, I will have more info and updates for you.
I have an appoinmennt on March 6.
I came on pretty strong as I'm so furious about the snake oil salespeople. She did ok with it, and I'm talking to the Doc on Friday.
But 30 grand, maybe more, with a 7 person sample? And no musicians. I'm staying on this like a hawk. Seems to me they'd want to get a bigger sample before charging the big bucks.
I'm in Virginia, of course backwaters to all of this. Until there's a much bigger sample with 90% or higher results, I'm just watching.
DGN -I'll be watching carefully, sure others will too. Of course, I truly hope this is for real, for you, for all of us.
Up with the serious, down and out for the users. He seems serious. Let's see.
Dr. Stubberman would do it at a discounted rate. More like $200.00 per session. 20 to 25 sessions should do the trick.
But you have to go on a 3 to 6 month waiting list.
The price she gave you was the retail price that you would be able to start ASAP.
It was very impressive the presentation they did for me today.

How severe would you rate your tinnitus on a 1-10?
Does it fluctuate to mild days?
then there is the crickets and cicadas. And, then there is the high pitched sound that overlaps those on the even more exciting dates with this.
Wow. annnn't i luck.y.
