He hears normal now...no hearing aids....doesn't hear the tinnitus at all....he did not have a tumor or any other medical problem other then tinnitus from gun shots in Vietnam....this saved his sanity.

I'm so happy to hear he got the relief he did. Tinnitus is not thought of as a life-threatening condition; however, I have met so many people who are nearly suicidal because of it. It can certainly drive you crazy at times even after you learn how to deal with it. Did he have hearing loss, as well, or "just" the tinnitus? I know there are hearing aids specifically used for masking tinnitus without hearing loss. I have both, so I'm hoping to find hearing aids that address both issues.

Wonderful! I am quite sure that tinnitus is not constant with everyone, can be intermittent, and maybe go away on its own??? If that is the case, perhaps that's what his tinnitus did 🙂 so the intervention he received may not get the credit for its complete disappearance. Just wondering!
