Yes, that's an interesting coincidence: I also have cervical disc degeneration. Plus radiation treatments to head and neck that my neurologist explained has damaged nerves in my neck and upper back. It seems to me our physicians might take time to consider new studies they are not familiar with ("never heard of it") But medicine has changed. There is no time.

Thanks for the information though! I "never heard of" cervical tinnitus. Disc degeneration also affects the nerves. At times I have used a lidocaine patch on my neck and upper back before I go to bed. It does calm tinnitus.

It is just so high maintenance with anything chronic!
