"10 patients have been done"

I've been hearing that number since 2012 !!!

When is his next patient? LOL

The last two patients did not get the benefit from TMS that we hoped for. It was a tuff and expensive two months for them. If TMS does not give you some relief in the first two weeks, chances are it is not going to work on you

thank you for the update Daniel.

is the 2-week probability of effectiveness window something the doctor has figured out or is that just generally accepted with rtms ?

It is something the doctor said to me. If I ever get a shot at it, I am going to request two weeks.

If I see improvement, I will finish the treatment, if not, well, at least I gave it my best shot.

Thank you Daniel. That is a very rational approach. I wish you all the best of luck. Keep us updated!

Because Dr. Stubbermans therapy can run in the $5,000 per week arena. It might just be worth it to visit Dr. Miller in San Diego.

He charges $1000.00 per week. he is willing to do a two week session, to see if it works on you.

Even though he does not do navagational/mapping, he does know the general area where to concentrate the TMS at.

All you need to bring him is a frequency match of your tinnitus. No fuus no muss, very stright forward and simple.

Becuse of all the preperation the last two Dr. Stubbermans patients had to do, for all the time and money that went into it, the results were empty.

So not to say that preperation is not important, but sometimes just winging it, can have it's advantages

Thanks for your reply, OP.

Are you planning on getting this treatment this year? If so, please keep us posted about how your progess goes! Fingers Crossed!

It's a bit of a bummer that TMS doesn't seem to work on some people. Did doctor ever get to say what the difference between the patients were, between the patients who benefitted vs the ones who didn't benefit from the therapy?

At any rate, I am a glad that at least some people are able to get successful treatment for their tinnitus using this therapy. Outside of rTMS, there is no therapy, NONE, that has even treated 1 person for tinnitus, just yet. As sad as this sounds, at least we are seeing some success with TMS.

Oh, also:

If you want to get the treatment from this doctor, do you have to get on the waiting list? Or can you just walk in and start the treatment, as long as you can pay the bill?

Lastly - could you please share with us regarding the method the doctor uses to pinpoint where the tinnitus really is inside someone's head? Can the doctor really accurately see where your tinnitus is?

Thanks!!

You can get right in to see Dr. Miller.

The way I see it, all the mumbo jumbo about trying to pinpoint your tinnitus with all this high tech equitment that Dr. Stubberman uses, is it worth $5,000 per week, plus $500.00 office visit, plus $1,000 for the MRI.

Dr. Miller knows where the Tinnitus originates, and the way I see it, if you are in the general area, it will work on you, if it is meant to be.

With your frquency test, they will dial in the correct info, to run the TMS.

For a two week run, I rather go with Dr. Miller.

Dr. Stubberman is hi tech as far as pin pointing the tinnitus. But it didn't seem to help his last two patients.

As far as who gets better and who does not. Who the hell knows, it's a crap shoot. The doctors can't tell you either way, based on your condition. They just don't know as of yet

I see. Has Dr Miller had some success with some patients so far? Does he take MRI before your treatment begins, or does he just go by 'gut' and tries to estimate where your tinnitus is located based on his knowledge/ assumptions?

From what I remember he just goes by his gut instinct.

Call him , they will talk to you.

I am not sure how many T patiens he has treated.

It has been a while since I had first met him.

At that time, only a copule.
