Darn, wish I lived in AZ...would be very interested in participating...hope someone here can do it.  Who's in AZ?  Know of Mary (MaryBKAriz).  Haven't seen her for awhile, I'll try to send her a PM to let her know about it...anyone else out there?

This is for neramexane, I believe.  There are locations all over the country doing this trial including Burbank, CA where I tried to participate.  I was ineligible because I'd had a brain tumor and surgery.  I've tried to participate in a number of trials, but have never been accepted b/c of my AN.  Very annoying!

Hey, does anyone know if MaryBKAriz suffers from tinnitus? 

Haven't seen her on the Forum in a while, but she may be interested in this.

Perhaps I should PM her?

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

Most people who have tinnitus and are SSD are not eligible to participate as I understand it >:(

Well...that one was short lived! I didn't even get past the first question...which was "How long have you had your tinnitus?" In my case, it's been about 4 years now.  They want people who are under a year. I guess I don't understand what difference it makes whether you've had it for 1 month or 30 years.  Oh well, better luck next time! :)
