Do cis really with tinntis?

The New Zealand govt is paying for them for tinntis and im wondering weather it worth asking about.

No ci bullshit please
 
Do you mean that Ci's helps Tinnitus??

From my experince I had my Ci for 8 months now the tinnitus had noticeably less than before, I still get them on bad days but I am able to keep listening with CI.
I had severe tinnitus for 16 years, I would say it's better in the last 8 months than in the past 16 years.

Each person is different. CI is not cure for Tinnitus. Ok

Ps I have family in New Zealand (phiaha, Bay of Islands) And I love NZ.
 
I didnt have tinnitus before surgery but in the two years or three iv developed tinnitus, it is only at night.
 
my hubby had always have tinnius since he was a kid. they suggested him to get a CI in order to reduce his tinnius. so he had CI now and tinnius is still there. He doesnt regret of having a CI though.
 
It doesnt bother me having a bit of tinnitus, the chance of hearing is far more worth it
 
really tinnitus bother is my ear is buzzing and noise. I don't know what is happened I think so noise and funny really bother all the time...

Actually, it can be used to "cure" Menierure's which can include severe tintintuas. But it's not a cure for stand alone tintinuas.
 
I am very funny bother because doesn't feeling comfortable buzzzz.. i weird because I have headache. I don't know what is happened I am wonder I figure out bother my tinnitus. I understand I am frustrated i need stop buzzing doesn't help cure. I don't know what is happened.. I understand I guess I have stranger my taste.. I'd know what is happened I understand. I am not interest about to feeling well I will go to doctor let know tinnitus because cause dizzy.. I am very tired because dr.karpinksi don't understand how deaf cochlear implant.
 
My CI TOTALLY blocks out my tinnitus when I'm wearing it. Mind you, it comes back with a vengeance at night when I take it off.
 
I rarely get it... I only get it sometimes at night after I get my CI off....it triggers it only when I'm stressed.... or emotionally upset.
 
I had the worst tinnitus following both of my CI surgeries and it didn't start to improve until 6-8 months following my activation. Even now my tinnitus is very loud (at the moment it sounds like an A/C fan) although it was much worse in the past. Back then, I heard 8 different sounds. Just when I became used to one sound, it would change to another. I can deal with hearing what sounds like an A/C fan or high, medium and low pitched beep tones. The only exception is when the A/C fan I hear overpowers what I'm trying to listen to when my CIs are on. I tend to have more difficulty with this when I am ill, tired or manic.

CIs have a 50/50% chance of improving tinnitus due to Meniere's. It should also be noted that when someone is a candidate for CI, tinnitus alone does not qualify them for candidacy.
 
I had mild tinnitus before my CI. It didn't bother me too much. After getting my CI, my tinnitus totally went away. There was one episode for a week or two about five months afterward but it went away again.

Not really sure why that came about. It woke me up from a deep sleep and scared me to death as I had gotten used to hearing nothing after taking my CI off. Every once in a while with my CI off (right before bed), I will notice very slight "noises" now and then but then silence. I never hear it with my CI on.
