Dale hope you get your hearing back.
Patty had an episode a few months back where she was dizzy and lost hearing in her one ear a few months ago.
i took her to the emergency room and they totally missed diagnosed her.
We also called and ENT and of course it was almost 2 months before she could see someone. After about 10 days I called the ENT to see if she could get in earlier. The had a cancellation so we got in the next day. The ent said she had a virus that affected the ear and she needed to be treated with in 2 weeks. This was now 4 or 5 weeks after the initial emergency room visit.
i asked the Ent if that was the case why did it take 2 months at the original phone call for an appointment.
he sent her to a specialist to get a steroid injection into the ear drum to see if hearing would return. But he explained because it had been over 4 weeks there was little chance her hearing would come back. So she opted not to get the shot and go with oral steroids. To this day she has lost her hearing completely in that ear.
Dale glad you are getting hearing back.
Patty did have vertigo as well. When she was in the hospital one DR was treating her for that and the neurologist was treating her for migraines. Even though we told them she had sudden hearing loss.
