That test at the end is gold! The 2 months of hearing loss in my left ear, seems to be 'conductive' as the humming test sounded in my left (deaf) ear! So that's excellent information!!

This is what I'm going through right now. It scared me. Thankfully, I have a doctor's appointment on Monday..even though that is not why I'm going. My ear canal is slightly swollen and painful. I didn't even know this could happen 😔

@AMWF Hi. I have had an ear infection which I believe may be connected to the covid 19 virus I had the year before. I felt viral symptoms fever, taste of flu, etc. And for the last 2 months have been bed ridden. Dizzy detached, feel like I'm living behind a glass window. Can't really engage with anything. Very disturbing vestibular issues.
@@IsaacJ143 the same thing happened to me & i also believe it was connected to covid..its been almost a year & i still havent gotten my full hearing back 😔
Almost 2 years ago, I got diagnosed for sudden hearing loss, got treated steroid and injections, it didn’t help that much. And my doctor told me that at this point nothing they can do for me and hope for best, I felt horrible, vertigo,pain, no focus , burning, pressure around my ear, now I got lots better since I started taking vitamin B12. Good luck to your son, I really understand his pain. Hopefully it can help your son too.
This happened to me this week. I woke up with a complete loss of hearing in my left ear. No obstruction or observable infection. Thankfully, I am receiving steroid therapy, and my hearing has returned.
Hi David. Did you immediately see a doctor to have steroid therapy when you noticed your hearing was off? I've heard about that procedure but not sure how the steroid is used. I woke up this morning and my hearing was slightly off on my right ear. I feel slightly dizzy due to the imbalance. I feel like I'm in a dream. Haven't seen a doctor yet. Hoping my hearing comes back to normal within a day.
@@jonathanfiel6215hey Jonathan, how did this turn out for you? Went to the doctor 3 days after because they were closed over the weekend. Started steroids today-hoping for the best
Thank you for sharing. Lost my hearing on the right side, also had to wait for the weekend to pass. No I am on 60mg/ day prednisolon. Fingers crossed I will be able to share a similar succes story. 😊
Recently I experienced sudden hearing loss in my left ear on a Tuesday and went and got a hearing test that day. They sent me to an ENT the next day who put me on a high dosage of steroids. I also opted to get three (3) separate shots in my ear. After two (20 weeks I regained about 50% of my hearing (prayers answered). So the faster you get treated the better your odds are of regaining some level of hearing back.
This info is gold. Thank you. My mom received that diagnosis, but she had to wait for over a month before she could even see a specialist. I wish there was a way to prioritize such instances when you only have a two week window. Very unfortunate that she now has no hearing in that one ear, forever , and just finding out now, that there could have been a way to reduce the symptoms, is disheartening. I can't imagine the doctors don't know this already
PSA if you get sudden hearing loss and tinnitus don’t wait! Go the same day. Don’t be like me and not get proper treatment till 10 days later, by then it is too late!! Now I suffer daily with permanent tinnitus for almost a year!!!!
Got the same with no infection or anything it been just over a week but thankfully its only mild so there is a chance I can get it back I know it can worsen over time and it makes me all the more anxious, doctors said I need a better hearing test, I want to get the ear shots as well, I really can't understand this I'm still in disbelief
This is how I lost my hearing in one ear. Tried high dose of prednisone and it didn't help. Thank God I have my right ear. The Bible says when you are weak He is strong. Thank you Jesus.
@AMWF my mom broke her hip and maybe I was stressed out about it. I heard stress can trigger it. I did sneeze about 10 minutes before it happened. Maybe that was it.
@AMWF Hello! I first had facial numbness for a month and then bells palsy for about 5 days. Then I lost my hearing. I got lucky because the ENT prescribed a large dose of the steroids and that ended up working for me and I avoided the injections! My hearing has come back fully! I had an MRI and I have inflamation in the pons of the brain stem on the left side which is where all of these symptoms have been occurring. I went to the neurologist today after a referral from the ENT and now I have a spinal tap scheduled for tomorrow. They don't know what is going on with me yet but think it is viral or autoimmune. I no longer have any numbness, bells palsy or hearing loss but am ready for all of this to be over.

In a patient with total hearing loss in the right ear (when the left ear is normal) Also often seen: 1) inability to hear in the other ear as well 2) Visual impairment in the right eye 3) Inability to determine which side the noise is coming from 4) Disturbance in the hearing of low frequencies in the left ear
I had this in Sept 22. Ignored it for 4 days until my wife said go to the doc. 50mg prednisone tapering gradually fixed it (or it fixed itself). A friend also had this and their hearing also returned. I was very relieved. I read that the higher your cholesterol, the less likely the hearing is to come back.
@@nickfauza3161 completely recovered. No side effects. A friend, about a month ago, had exactly the same diagnosis, also recovered completely. In her case the doc seemed to think high cholesterol was to blame. In my case no reason was given, as they dont really know. I've just realised I said this 2 weeks ago maybe the steroids affected my memory.
I lost hearing in my left ear one week ago. How often should I get Intratympanic steroid injections during this critical early stage? I'm not taking oral steroids. Thank you!
Thanks for the information!!!! I also got a hearing disorder a few years back but my father's friend suggests him to buy an Ear Care pack for me. And he bought it for me from their online store. I used it and now My condition is much better.

I got sick around Oct29th and lasted until around Nov.7th maybe? And somewhere between the 7th and 14th I woke up and noticed my left ear had this pressure ringing fullness sound and sensation… I’ve experienced this similar sensation before in my right ear but it went away, this has lasted a lot longer than I remember… I’ve been seen multiple times at this clinic since Nov.28th… they’ve cleaned my ears, evaluated and treated me for possible infection, although I haven’t experienced any severe symptoms of infection like vertigo, discharge, swelling, sharp pain in or around my ear, fever, blah blah blah… the medication they’ve put me on (antibiotics, nasal spray, antihistamines etc.) is for middle ear problems (FLUID) which is what they all keep coming back to saying, that I’m just full of fluid… but my CT scan they did on me came back normal, including my middle ear and Eustachian tube etc. all came back normal and that I have no fluid? So I’m just confused why 3 physicians would be telling me I have fluid in my ear if the CT scan says I don’t? I have an appointment with an ENT Jan.26th and I’m on a cancellation list but trying to get in sooner has been difficult… I can hear out of my ear? Sound may be slightly different but nothing too drastic, only when the ringing and pressure irritation sensation comes back is when sound is slightly different… when I put headphones on it sounds like one sound, I’m not hearing one better than the other? I don’t vertigo or anything like that, I can talk on the phone fine, hear my phone ring fine, hear other people fine etc… This past week I’ve noticed my symptoms ease up at night and then amp up during the day, makes no sense… the only thing I can truly say that is driving me crazy is this pressure ringing sound, low pitched ringing sound, like when your ear is full of water and you can hear the pressure from how full it is? That sound… everything else has not been that extreme, the pressure never gets too intense like when you fly, and the fullness sensation never gets to a point where I can’t hear out of my ear? I noticed early on, when I was on medication the symptoms would ease up a lot, for days, but then I would notice my ear being sensitive to certain sounds like bass or vibrations, like my own voice or somebody with a deeper voice I would notice my ear felt like it would vibrate or flutter? But I haven’t really noticed that lately, it’s been just this ringing irritation pressure noise that’s been consistent, never worse, and it’s kind of been on a routine? Idk… can anybody tell me if they think I have an inner ear problem or SHL??
@@earnestlamuel yeah well I come to find out I have “mild low frequency hearing loss” in my left ear over 2 frequencies, ears were perfect and together until the last 2 lowest frequencies my hearing dropped 30db at 500Hz and 35db at 250Hz. Again not too severe on paper, but nonetheless those frequencies drops will certainly give you shitty fullness pressure sensations and the low pitched humming ringing. Maybe there was fluid in there at one point, but some time between Dec.5th to Jan.13th it went away and when I went and done my hearing test at this audiologist office Jan.13th the doctor told me there is no fluid, type A normal tympanogram which means nothing conductive and bone conduction hearing showed sensorineural hearing loss so…. Yeah pretty pissed off these physicians don’t even know the slightest thing about “sudden hearing loss” or just saying “hey you could go right down the road and do a free hearing test because there’s nothing else we can really do for you” or something as simple as the humming test or some shit… literally self diagnosed myself and have found out more about SSNHL then any of those physicians will ever know I can promise you that… and I got ahold of an ENT doc online who helped me more than you could ever know smh he’s the whole reason I even found out about sudden hearing loss, or suggesting a hearing test, he even predicted what my hearing loss most likely was before I went and done the test smh done has been spot on. But anyways. So yeah, was being misdiagnosed for an entire month and being treated for something I may or may not have ever had, I have no idea. I believe what I ever I got sick with attacked my inner ear for sure. There’s like a 2 week window they typically want to treat it with high dose steroid treatment, anything after that your chances of saving your hearing decreases. And I’m like WORSE CASE scenario 2 months in, but I’m not exactly sure when the sensorineural hearing loss happened because my symptoms mimicked ear congestion fluid etc. so that’s what was confusing and why I never thought “oh yeah I have a hearing loss” because I could hear out of it? It was just different. But this ENT doc online feels very strongly that odds are in my favor for a full recovery because my audiometric hearing loss is not too severe and based on the symptoms and my age he believes I’ll recover so. I started high dose oral steroid treatment 2 days ago and I’ve already seen BIG TIME improvement, for a while my symptoms fluctuated a lot, flare during the day, ease up at night etc. but this has been steady consistent improvement, ringing is at a very minimum right now, pressure is very minimal, still present but nowhere near as bad as it was or has been. BUT. Everybody is different, I’m not even sure if I will recover 100%, my ent doc I saw the other told me she couldn’t really tell me because odds are kinda stacked against us because I’ve missed the window for treatment by a pretty good gap. She just told me there’s a chance but I chance I couldn’t. But there are plenty of ppl who have started immediately after onset of symptoms and didn’t recover anything. What I suggest for you, if you haven’t already, try the humming test at home and or go see an audiologist and get a thorough audiogram work up and no for sure if it’s conductive hearing loss or sensorineural.
@@wobekillin9991 i am experiencing tinnitus and a little pressure, not able to hear on full capacity when i compare it with my right ear. i am on medication, the condition is better than before but i just want to hear as much as i could before this SSHL!
@@earnestlamuel yeah I understand man trust me, I compare all the time to my good ear and it’s just like my left ear is just dull, not as in depth and clear and sharp as my right ear. I spent the whole month of Jan. and Dec. worrying and obsessing over my ear it was crazy smh, no sleep, didn’t wanna eat, was just down about it honestly and it was all I ever thought about. BUT. The steroids are helping for sure. I’m not 100% but I feel like I’m headed in the right direction, consistent improvement which is shocking for me because I’m pretty far out of the “window” for treatment but I’m just praying and keeping my fingers crossed I’ll continue to see improvement. But at least you’re seeing improvement as well?? That’s good! Just keep faith and be patient and hopefully it will continue to improve for you. How bad was your SSNHL? Jc.
@@wobekillin9991 it started with my common cold on 26th January, as a work as a professor at a college of nursing, i was asked to conduct and officiate republic day celebrations and when i woke up in the morning, i could barely speak, could barely swallow anything because of irritation in larynx, and almost complete deafness in the left ear. Even then i did my duties and went home to rest thinking rest will make it all go away. Took some antipyretics and antibiotics and three days later, i could experience that my overall health is getting better, except my hearing. Reading on google and watching on TH-cam about hearing loss made me scared more on third night. Went to see a very good and renounced ENT specialist on 30th January as they diagnosed me with Otitis Media. Said my nose and throat infection transferred to my left ear by Eustachian tube. prescribed about three to four medications and after a week, i was feeling better. Today, i believe my hearing is 95% restored, but the main issue it tinnitus, and it is genuinely persistent and prominent. I can hear the ringing more when i’m in a quiet area. I loved being in a quiet places and now i’m scared to be in a quiet area. I read somewhere Tinnitus itself is not a disease rather than it is a symptom that something is wrong in the auditory system, which includes the ear, the auditory nerve that connects the inner ear to the brain, and the parts of the brain that process sound. I also read about Tinnitus that the greatest majority of new tinnitus cases will resolve within 6-12 months of onset. I am hoping i’m one of them as i am a MAJOR AUDIOPHILE, spend quite a huge account of money on good quality earphones, headphones and home theatres. I can’t imagine living with this constant ringing in my left year for the rest of my life. I’ll try to do everything that i can, even if it costs me to proceed to a surgery. Let’s just hope it doesn’t come to that. Thank you JC, for talking to me. I do feel better about it talking to you here. Let’s connect on any social media platform, if you’re comfortable, thank you, EL!
This makes me sad :( I've experienced this, and I'm very poor and have no rights where I am. It's a miracle I recovered my hearing loss, and it was through the hammock.
Very interesting Test! I feel like I can hear equally in each year. This is DESPITE having had an audiogram that said I lost hearing in my R ear to 55-65 db across the range of frequencies. I have thought since the "onset event" in which I ALSO got BLARING tinnitus with the hearing loss -- that some of the loss of hearing is due to the "fullness" and tinnitus masking. I have another audiogram in 5 weeks to test my hearing. in the mean time I've had 4 Intratempanic steroid shots in my R ear. I want to some hearing has improved but again, it could be because of dips in the "fullness" feeling in my ear and tinnitus also not as pronounced. I had extreme neck pain for about a week prior to my hearing loss event. I have no had an MRI of my brain which revealed no cochlea damage, no noted nerve damage, and no other abnormalities. So I am hopeful that I can find medical practioners who will focus on the neck and be able to solve that issue. I should note that in July 2019 I also had sudden onset hearing loss + tinnitus. Which I had thru Dec 2021 until I had a foraminotomy and disectomy to remove a herniated disc -- and I woke up and all my hearing was returned as well as the tinnitus gone. I have a cervical MRI tomorrow to check the spine. I have some tingling my 3rd-5th digits, I'm dropping a lot of things, and I also have shooting pains down my left leg (Lumbar cause I'd think) as other symptoms. Hopeful for answers soon. But this test would also support the MRI and other ENT related tests that seem like no real issue with my cochlea or related nerves. As the hearing for this test seems equally bilateral.
Same as me i have high frequency hearing loss and tinnitus.....and I have bad poster... heavy neck pain before it's comes.... Day by day hearing getting worste pls say some solution 😭
@@kirthika2379 did you have any jaw/neck pain prior? I've had some recovery of hearing and "language understanding" (from 36% of words up to 92%). I just got a Starkey Genesis AI hearing aid for my R ear. But I'm still trying to pursue cervical massage/manipulation for trigger points in the upper back and neck area. I have very flexible/loose ligaments, which my PT specializes in manual therapy (very hands on manipulation as opposed to just giving you exercises) to which I've also found very helpful. Might help you. Pulling for you!
@@paul_devos yes I have heavy neck pain before tinnitus and hearing loss comes..I feel air pressure in my ear..amd doctor said I have high frequency loss..in both ear
I just came back from the range today stupidly not wearing protection at an outdoor range bc I forgot to bring mine. Me not being able to hear for a couple hours out one ear really concerned me so I ended up here. I tried your at home test and I can hear my humming at the same db level on both ears, I guess that means I dont have much to worry about? I hummed with both my fingers covering my ears and not covering my ears and it sounds okay. But my left ear still has a strong ring and slightly muffled noise threshold.
Ps. Me and my fiance were both there shooting at the same location one at a time and she also didnt have protection. But her hearing is fine. She doesnt have any ringing or hearing loss
Yeah I had a gunshot near my right ear and there’s a difference I can feel it. I can hear thank god but I can feel there’s a certain change. Recently I damaged my right ear again because my door slammed violently and the noise compressed very hard which my right ear took a hit and right now it’s bad I can still hear but I’m hearing lots of rings. Waiting for my doctors note. …get better dude it’s life changing.
Did yours end up being permanent? I got back from the range a couple hours ago, I was wearing ear plugs but couldn't really get them to fit right. I'm going through the same thing rn and it's scaring me.
@@TooToneTuffTonyTweakin it’s here and there. I can still hear but there’s constant ringing. I’m going to an audiologist soon… be careful with noises and screeching
@@TooToneTuffTonyTweakin no my hearing came back completely. I was scared for a long time, it was about 3 and a half weeks before I could hear properly again. Once in a blue moon I'll get a slight ringing in that ear but not as often as you think. And it doesn't last too long. With time it gets better
Hearing Problems I have had trouble with hearing most of my life, mainly Neural-Deafness and Acoustic shock disorder so in speech, what I thought I may have heard is not always what was really said or complete. Like when someone says “The cow jumped over the moon” what it can sound like to me is, “da ow umpt ower da noon”, however I look at lips while listening and my brain is highly trained to extrapolate and interpret, so I still get on in life, although it is stressful at times. Consonants like a P, a G, a D, a J, a, K, a Q a, T, a, B, a V & F, I cannot tell apart. And I cannot hear the S sound, unless it is very loud. This hearing deficit over works my brain and after a while I get what Audiology calls “Acoustical Fatigue” and so I usually snooze for bit after the struggle. Acoustic shock disorder When there is an outburst of loud sound, it shocks my brain to pain, so the loud automobiles with no or poor mufflers, are terrible when they drive by my house. It is no wonder I do not like to target shoot, even with ear plugs on. Most people that know me cannot fathom this hearing situation, like when they are talking to me a big loud truck goes by or a car without a muffler, they just keep on talking all-through the sound moment and expect me to understand. Any background sound like in a meeting, church, school, etc I am essentially 80% deaf during the background sound play. “You talk well and I hear you well, so I assume that you can hear as good as I do” This in not correct! I have recently been doing some experimenting with my hearing loss and it looks promising, so any continued luck, I will be glad to pass it on to others. Robert Shrewsbury
I'm 66. I lost hearing in my left ear after years of Meniere's symptoms including mystagmus. Basically, an over-pressure in the inner ear causes vertigo-like feelings of imbalance lasting minutes to hours. The loss occurred during an episode lasting 2 hours at 3:00am. Slowly, I am recovering, currently plateaued at 30% hearing. But, tinnitus has doubled in both ears. I've gone from thinking that I'm a cochlear implant candidate to a hearing aid candidate.
He, I’m 15 years old and had the same problem listening to a pod cast with ear buds and the suddenly when I got off the car couldn’t hear from one ear and this happened 5 months ago but now I got used to it but what are the solution
I had vertigo positional vertigo for about 2 weeks and then I came down with a "cold" (I tested negative several times). I woke up one morning and my ear was blocked. I have been on Antibiotics and Sudafed and nothing has changed. I have a follow up today. They mentioned Prednisone...
I had a loss of hearing in my left ear nearly a month ago. I had a severe nasal infection and it went to my ear and I had an ear infection. I got a ZPack and it healed. Now I have 50% hearing in my ear and got my hearing tested and it is definitely worse than my right ear. I just got out on Prednisone too. I had a bad episode with it years ago. I'm praying 🙏 it is the right drug to take. I'm not at all excited to take it. If it has bad symptoms I'm getting off it.
@@Doingmybest700 Really fine. I did great. I was on the Carnivore Diet back then and still lost a huge amount of weight even on it. It worked well for me and I got 100% of my hearing back praise the Lord.

It's been a little over a week and my right ear sounds a little distorted/muffled. I saw a specialist and he told me I was diagnosed with temp hearing loss. There was no wax build up nor infection and the hearing test came out well. Doc said theres nothing he can do and to wait a month to determine if it worsens or doesnt leave. Anyone else have this and if do did it leave? I'm currently worried especially bc now my other ear is starting to ache and this happened out of the blue. Not sure if my cpap has anything to do it.
Happened to me on 3 day of Covid, everything sounded lower and not as crisp, I have a cpap top idk if the cpap has something to do with it too. I started off having rotating ear pain
I'm not entirely sure if I have, while having tinnitus I always notice these strange moments where the sound of my computer engine or something suddenly stops and that temporarily triggers my ear or ears to full a tad bit full or like they're close to popping with a slightly louder than usual ringing... Afraid that it could be SHL I have to talk to the doctors to have the ENT appointment which was expected for 2-3 weeks to be made urgent and happen as soon as possible.
I’m younger and have had tinnitus all my life. I’ve gotten what you’ve described many times in my life, multiple times a year. It sound like someone turned off my hearing for a few seconds, then it will return with louder ringing for a bit, then usually go back to normal within a few minutes. If you learn anything from your appointment do let me know, I’ve gone in for check ups many times and haven’t been able to diagnose anything.
This hit me, left ear, July 25th 2022.. 7 months now.. I will say, when I 'hum', I can hear something (humming) in my left (bad) ear and good (right) ear to, of course.. I truly feel there is fluid behind my eardrum. When 1st diagnosed, by 3 different (MD) Drs, all said fluid behind the eardrum. Then, after loopholes with my (then) insurance I finally get to an ENT Dr about 6 weeks later, & after a hearing test, etc, they say this shows no fluid behind the eardrum.. *I just don't think a hearing test is 100% accurate*. I ask both the physicians asst and audiologist this same question at different times.. What if, I did have fluid and by the time I got to them for them to check most or all was gone BUT! like any fluid, it dried on the backside of my eardrum & area, and possibly the little 'bone' structure, not allowing them to perform like they should.? BOTH said, that's really an awesome question, never crossed their mind(s) and neither had an answer.. IT was left at that. Having issues with sinus in my ears all my life, I honestly feel like there 'is' fluid or some issue behind my eardrum.. Maybe!?? OR could be both that and SHL? Thank you!! Any thoughts, PLEASE share.. Blessings Randy A Carlisle (FB) & DJ at KSGV Seagoville Tx
Hi I'm there with you too. Woke up this morning and felt my hearing was slightly off on my right ear. It's causing me to feel unbalanced and dizzy. I can sense either the inner tube of my ear might be inflamed which is causing me to feel dizzy. I hope it's temporary. I haven't decided to go see a doctor yet. But I do feel anxious and a sense of anxiety because I keep thinking about my hearing. Have to gotten better? BTW, as we age our body starts to change. I only started just having ear issues in my 40s. I'm turning 42 this yr and I've already had 3 episodes of temporary hearing loss.
@@jonathanfiel6215 If you haven't gone to an ENT, go ASAP!! Seriously. I could not get in for 6 weeks and this attributed to my deafness. If I had received steroids in time, I may have hearing now.. But now it's too late so a Cochlear Implant is my next step! U sure don't wanna mess with any part of your hearing, at all.!!! Get that checked out soon as u can.. I'm now with an Ear Specialist at the Dallas Ear Institute.. He's to do the implant surgery, which is about an hour & a half long.. Usually or suppose to be very little pain afterwards. Maybe a little dizziness afterward, just depends on each person, but that should not last too long, a week, "maybe, if that".. Then after the surgery, the implant will be tried about 2 weeks after the implant is done...... Best of Luck!! Randy
@@DallasPix Thanks for sharing your story. Yes I'm going to call the doctor and see if I can get in tomorrow morning. My hearing has been acting up for over 12 hrs now.

i am going to the doctor tomorrow, but here is where it came about. it is my right ear. ever since i was about 15 or so i have often had a lot of wax build up every few months it seems. in fact my grandmother had the exact same thing maybe it is herditery, not srue. anyhow, normally i get it removed ever3-6 months, however, i am pretty sure it has been almost , or maye over a eyar since last time they were cleaned. my right ear has always been the one to have more build up then the left. and recently it has gotten gradually more and more "full" and over the past few weeks i slowly noticed that ear is slowly becoming harder to hear in the th eleft albiet i think ther eis wax in both. last night i was tryign to flush them both out with warm water and a ear cleaning bulb fo rabout 10-15 minutes. i had jsut only a very minor tiny tiny tiny bits barely come out. albiet at one point i inadvertantly think i might have gotten the bulb tip too far in my ear, not sure if i hit my ear drum or not, although it didn't hurt at all. but then i was going to try doing H peroxide, but it put some in and i didn't feel any bubbles, i think i opeend it almost 2 years ago maybe it is no good, so i immidialy rinsed the ear otu. but i spilled some on me. so i took a shower and tried in each ear for a fwe minutes to let water drain my ear of wax, with warm water. not sure it did much. although i think for several seconds here and there i did have the shower strem from the head of the water sometiems it went direcly into the canal, not sure if that was too much pressure? but again no pain was casued. and the ear felt fine other than the alredy muffled sound but this morning when i woike up and since the rest of the day the hearing in that ear is siginficantly less than the left ear , although i am not deaf in it. i am not sure if maybe i have tons of wax and in addition maybe got some water trapped in with it, or maybe wax plus high level irritation. any thoughts? i hope i didn't do anything to injure it
My wife lost hearing suddenly when she was hospitalized for auto immune Condition, she was on steroid IV and all of a sudden she lost her hearing. The very next day the doctors injected steroids in her ears, however the right ear has no hearing at all and the left one has about 10%, she get her second steroid dose after week, still no success, she is suppose to get her 3rd shot on 21/7/2022. She is very depressed so I am..She has been almost paralyzed below her waist and her left hand and now this hearing loss.. we have a 2 year old daughter. I don't know how she can get back her hearing atleast while she is fighting with her auto immune Condition.
How is your wife now? What is her autoimmune disease? I have autoimmune disease too and lost my left ear hearing completely due to unknown nerve weakness. Probably due to autoimmune.
@lp8688 she had 2 diagnosis, Lupus & GBS, which is CIDP now, It's been more than an year now, we have settled with this problem, we moved to India from Trinidad & Tobago, she got a 3rd relapse this year Jan, however everything in control now, finally we got excellent doctors, now I have more knowledge about her condition and how to deal with, we have hope that all this will ease up in coming years with high possibility of her regaining everything she lost...when did you get your diagnosis of auto imminune? which one is it? where you from?
@@litjukebox Good to know that she is recovering and you have got amazing doctors treating her. Hopefully she will become healthy and normal very soon. I have autoimmune hashimotos thyroiditis since I was 20 and recently got affected with SSNHL in left ear at 27 years old. I'm from India. Doctors aren't sure if it is autoimmune or a poor circulation issue which caused nerve death in left ear.
Ear infection (after getting over bad cold) started 6 days ago. They’ve hade me on a 10 day regimen of antibiotics (1 in am 1 in pm)... still no improvement with hearing. How long til I get my hearing back?
I started feeling hearing loss in my right ear since last night and went to the emergency department right away today. I’ve been given 40mg oral Prednisone once daily for three days. On the audiometry, I had a loss of 60-65 decibels in the mid frequency range of sound. Is it concerning? Asking people who faced this issue, did it resolve? Really scared
I woke up one day deaf in one ear. Its been 5 months i didnt recover completely. I cant hear very well high frequencies and my ear keep having that noise 24/7
We moved into our cabin in TN in June. In September I started experiencing hearing loss in my right ear. I went to three doctors. One was an ENT. None of them could figure it out. We moved into a different home in November and it went away completely and never came back. I have no idea why…?
Anyone have any issues with dental implants and deafness. I had an implant last November and in the following weeks my hearing dissolved. No one is talking about this idea.
My brother age 17.he also hearing loss both ears due to one day few ext Nov 18, 2021. We early to start the treatment to give ah steroids iv injection and Intra tymponic steroid injection. In respectively 3 weaks but no improvement. Now what we can do it. All medical reports are normal, MRI , CT , Blood test , Immunity also
I got diagnosed for sudden hearing loss around 2 years ago, it really kicked my ass , done tests and the doctors told me that nothing they can do for me, it gives pain, pressure around the ear and brain, hard to hear, vertigo, burns and more, one day I did some research for supplements and I found that vitamin B12 might help, and I gave them a shot, now I feel lots better. Hopefully it can help your brother too. Good luck
i suddenly lost my hearing two weeks ago. i'm 17 and i have now moderate hearing loss (i did a hearing test) the causes are still unknown but it isn't a conductive problem. it's so complicated to get appointments for all the exams, i think i'll never get my hearing back... oh and btw, the am under a steroid therapy for two weeks but i see no change... anyone for who it worked ??
that happened to me yesterday, feels like it's blocked when i tap my ear i hear bassy thumbs and some kinda of pressure there, my left ear doesn't have that i don't know about the humminh test, it sounds like it's in the middle
I get sudden deafness 2 weaks ago. And get vertigo too. But my my doctor did not give steroids through the ear but through the blood. is there the same?
@AMWF I really don't know. TBH, it is hard to notice, i felt confusing, but i didnt know what was disturbing me. later I noticed it while testing my headphone. The doc told me about things that causes this, like infection, loud noise, sometimes ear clog etc etc, but they cant tell exactly what caused my hearing loss. I saw many videos and read articles about hearing loss, but IDK why i found the most important one last :'(
@AMWF whoa dude!!!!? I am not going to reveal all my personal info here. the world is a scary place. if u r experiencing some problem like this, I would suggest go visit a Ent doc ASAP! even tell them about this video, about "sudden hearing loss". best of luck bro.

Mine is both too. I had steroid injections a few days ago and zero improvement so far. The doctor says if another round doesn't work, I can get hearing aids 😭 I'm only 36

That test at the end is gold! The 2 months of hearing loss in my left ear, seems to be 'conductive' as the humming test sounded in my left (deaf) ear! So that's excellent information!!
How is it now?
I suffered that 4 years ago. Can’t hear through my right ear now, and have constant tinnitus. Changed my life...

Did steroids improve it? I feel so detached from everything around me.
@AMWF Hi. I have had an ear infection which I believe may be connected to the covid 19 virus I had the year before. I felt viral symptoms fever, taste of flu, etc. And for the last 2 months have been bed ridden. Dizzy detached, feel like I'm living behind a glass window. Can't really engage with anything. Very disturbing vestibular issues.
@@IsaacJ143 the same thing happened to me & i also believe it was connected to covid..its been almost a year & i still havent gotten my full hearing back 😔
My son have a right earing loss i hope and pray always in 1GOD that my son left ear doesent effect it for ever..🙏🙏🙏
Almost 2 years ago, I got diagnosed for sudden hearing loss, got treated steroid and injections, it didn’t help that much. And my doctor told me that at this point nothing they can do for me and hope for best, I felt horrible, vertigo,pain, no focus , burning, pressure around my ear, now I got lots better since I started taking vitamin B12. Good luck to your son, I really understand his pain. Hopefully it can help your son too.
This happened to me this week. I woke up with a complete loss of hearing in my left ear. No obstruction or observable infection. Thankfully, I am receiving steroid therapy, and my hearing has returned.
Hello
Awsome
Hi David. Did you immediately see a doctor to have steroid therapy when you noticed your hearing was off? I've heard about that procedure but not sure how the steroid is used. I woke up this morning and my hearing was slightly off on my right ear. I feel slightly dizzy due to the imbalance. I feel like I'm in a dream. Haven't seen a doctor yet. Hoping my hearing comes back to normal within a day.
@@jonathanfiel6215hey Jonathan, how did this turn out for you?
Went to the doctor 3 days after because they were closed over the weekend. Started steroids today-hoping for the best
Thank you for sharing. Lost my hearing on the right side, also had to wait for the weekend to pass. No I am on 60mg/ day prednisolon. Fingers crossed I will be able to share a similar succes story. 😊
This man looks so sweet and kind 😢
Recently I experienced sudden hearing loss in my left ear on a Tuesday and went and got a hearing test that day. They sent me to an ENT the next day who put me on a high dosage of steroids. I also opted to get three (3) separate shots in my ear. After two (20 weeks I regained about 50% of my hearing (prayers answered). So the faster you get treated the better your odds are of regaining some level of hearing back.
I meant two (2) weeks.
@@JohnPeterfr how painful were the shots? Hopefully I can get an appointment for my son tomorrow
Did you do the hum test like at the end of the video? Which side did you hear the hum, the bad ear?
This info is gold. Thank you. My mom received that diagnosis, but she had to wait for over a month before she could even see a specialist. I wish there was a way to prioritize such instances when you only have a two week window. Very unfortunate that she now has no hearing in that one ear, forever , and just finding out now, that there could have been a way to reduce the symptoms, is disheartening. I can't imagine the doctors don't know this already
PSA if you get sudden hearing loss and tinnitus don’t wait! Go the same day. Don’t be like me and not get proper treatment till 10 days later, by then it is too late!! Now I suffer daily with permanent tinnitus for almost a year!!!!
Myself too. Lost my left hearing completely.
Try to take vitamin B12 , it might help, I have the some problem, and the doctors could not help that much.
Got the same with no infection or anything it been just over a week but thankfully its only mild so there is a chance I can get it back I know it can worsen over time and it makes me all the more anxious, doctors said I need a better hearing test, I want to get the ear shots as well, I really can't understand this I'm still in disbelief
This is how I lost my hearing in one ear. Tried high dose of prednisone and it didn't help. Thank God I have my right ear. The Bible says when you are weak He is strong. Thank you Jesus.
I am on prednisone right now and am not seeing improvements either :(
@@jordancarter4051 I hope it comes back. I'm so sorry! Good news is you do get used to it.
@AMWF my mom broke her hip and maybe I was stressed out about it. I heard stress can trigger it. I did sneeze about 10 minutes before it happened. Maybe that was it.
@AMWF Hello! I first had facial numbness for a month and then bells palsy for about 5 days. Then I lost my hearing. I got lucky because the ENT prescribed a large dose of the steroids and that ended up working for me and I avoided the injections! My hearing has come back fully! I had an MRI and I have inflamation in the pons of the brain stem on the left side which is where all of these symptoms have been occurring. I went to the neurologist today after a referral from the ENT and now I have a spinal tap scheduled for tomorrow. They don't know what is going on with me yet but think it is viral or autoimmune. I no longer have any numbness, bells palsy or hearing loss but am ready for all of this to be over.

In a patient with total hearing loss in the right ear (when the left ear is normal)
Also often seen:
1) inability to hear in the other ear as well
2) Visual impairment in the right eye
3) Inability to determine which side the noise is coming from
4) Disturbance in the hearing of low frequencies in the left ear
I had this in Sept 22. Ignored it for 4 days until my wife said go to the doc. 50mg prednisone tapering gradually fixed it (or it fixed itself). A friend also had this and their hearing also returned. I was very relieved. I read that the higher your cholesterol, the less likely the hearing is to come back.
Is your hearing completely recovered or just partially? And did you have any side affects with the prednisone?
@@nickfauza3161 completely recovered. No side effects. A friend, about a month ago, had exactly the same diagnosis, also recovered completely. In her case the doc seemed to think high cholesterol was to blame. In my case no reason was given, as they dont really know. I've just realised I said this 2 weeks ago maybe the steroids affected my memory.
Thanks because I don’t know why I can’t hear out of my left ear today.
Did you ever get your hearing back? Im In the same boat 😢
I lost hearing in my left ear one week ago. How often should I get Intratympanic steroid injections during this critical early stage? I'm not taking oral steroids. Thank you!
Thanks for the information!!!! I also got a hearing disorder a few years back but my father's friend suggests him to buy an Ear Care pack for me. And he bought it for me from their online store. I used it and now My condition is much better.

What if you cant determine if humming is detected in both ears?
I got sick around Oct29th and lasted until around Nov.7th maybe? And somewhere between the 7th and 14th I woke up and noticed my left ear had this pressure ringing fullness sound and sensation… I’ve experienced this similar sensation before in my right ear but it went away, this has lasted a lot longer than I remember… I’ve been seen multiple times at this clinic since Nov.28th… they’ve cleaned my ears, evaluated and treated me for possible infection, although I haven’t experienced any severe symptoms of infection like vertigo, discharge, swelling, sharp pain in or around my ear, fever, blah blah blah… the medication they’ve put me on (antibiotics, nasal spray, antihistamines etc.) is for middle ear problems (FLUID) which is what they all keep coming back to saying, that I’m just full of fluid… but my CT scan they did on me came back normal, including my middle ear and Eustachian tube etc. all came back normal and that I have no fluid? So I’m just confused why 3 physicians would be telling me I have fluid in my ear if the CT scan says I don’t? I have an appointment with an ENT Jan.26th and I’m on a cancellation list but trying to get in sooner has been difficult… I can hear out of my ear? Sound may be slightly different but nothing too drastic, only when the ringing and pressure irritation sensation comes back is when sound is slightly different… when I put headphones on it sounds like one sound, I’m not hearing one better than the other? I don’t vertigo or anything like that, I can talk on the phone fine, hear my phone ring fine, hear other people fine etc… This past week I’ve noticed my symptoms ease up at night and then amp up during the day, makes no sense… the only thing I can truly say that is driving me crazy is this pressure ringing sound, low pitched ringing sound, like when your ear is full of water and you can hear the pressure from how full it is? That sound… everything else has not been that extreme, the pressure never gets too intense like when you fly, and the fullness sensation never gets to a point where I can’t hear out of my ear? I noticed early on, when I was on medication the symptoms would ease up a lot, for days, but then I would notice my ear being sensitive to certain sounds like bass or vibrations, like my own voice or somebody with a deeper voice I would notice my ear felt like it would vibrate or flutter? But I haven’t really noticed that lately, it’s been just this ringing irritation pressure noise that’s been consistent, never worse, and it’s kind of been on a routine? Idk… can anybody tell me if they think I have an inner ear problem or SHL??
i’m experiencing the same
@@earnestlamuel yeah well I come to find out I have “mild low frequency hearing loss” in my left ear over 2 frequencies, ears were perfect and together until the last 2 lowest frequencies my hearing dropped 30db at 500Hz and 35db at 250Hz. Again not too severe on paper, but nonetheless those frequencies drops will certainly give you shitty fullness pressure sensations and the low pitched humming ringing. Maybe there was fluid in there at one point, but some time between Dec.5th to Jan.13th it went away and when I went and done my hearing test at this audiologist office Jan.13th the doctor told me there is no fluid, type A normal tympanogram which means nothing conductive and bone conduction hearing showed sensorineural hearing loss so…. Yeah pretty pissed off these physicians don’t even know the slightest thing about “sudden hearing loss” or just saying “hey you could go right down the road and do a free hearing test because there’s nothing else we can really do for you” or something as simple as the humming test or some shit… literally self diagnosed myself and have found out more about SSNHL then any of those physicians will ever know I can promise you that… and I got ahold of an ENT doc online who helped me more than you could ever know smh he’s the whole reason I even found out about sudden hearing loss, or suggesting a hearing test, he even predicted what my hearing loss most likely was before I went and done the test smh done has been spot on. But anyways.
So yeah, was being misdiagnosed for an entire month and being treated for something I may or may not have ever had, I have no idea. I believe what I ever I got sick with attacked my inner ear for sure. There’s like a 2 week window they typically want to treat it with high dose steroid treatment, anything after that your chances of saving your hearing decreases. And I’m like WORSE CASE scenario 2 months in, but I’m not exactly sure when the sensorineural hearing loss happened because my symptoms mimicked ear congestion fluid etc. so that’s what was confusing and why I never thought “oh yeah I have a hearing loss” because I could hear out of it? It was just different.
But this ENT doc online feels very strongly that odds are in my favor for a full recovery because my audiometric hearing loss is not too severe and based on the symptoms and my age he believes I’ll recover so. I started high dose oral steroid treatment 2 days ago and I’ve already seen BIG TIME improvement, for a while my symptoms fluctuated a lot, flare during the day, ease up at night etc. but this has been steady consistent improvement, ringing is at a very minimum right now, pressure is very minimal, still present but nowhere near as bad as it was or has been. BUT. Everybody is different, I’m not even sure if I will recover 100%, my ent doc I saw the other told me she couldn’t really tell me because odds are kinda stacked against us because I’ve missed the window for treatment by a pretty good gap. She just told me there’s a chance but I chance I couldn’t. But there are plenty of ppl who have started immediately after onset of symptoms and didn’t recover anything.
What I suggest for you, if you haven’t already, try the humming test at home and or go see an audiologist and get a thorough audiogram work up and no for sure if it’s conductive hearing loss or sensorineural.
@@wobekillin9991 i am experiencing tinnitus and a little pressure, not able to hear on full capacity when i compare it with my right ear. i am on medication, the condition is better than before but i just want to hear as much as i could before this SSHL!
@@earnestlamuel yeah I understand man trust me, I compare all the time to my good ear and it’s just like my left ear is just dull, not as in depth and clear and sharp as my right ear. I spent the whole month of Jan. and Dec. worrying and obsessing over my ear it was crazy smh, no sleep, didn’t wanna eat, was just down about it honestly and it was all I ever thought about. BUT. The steroids are helping for sure. I’m not 100% but I feel like I’m headed in the right direction, consistent improvement which is shocking for me because I’m pretty far out of the “window” for treatment but I’m just praying and keeping my fingers crossed I’ll continue to see improvement. But at least you’re seeing improvement as well?? That’s good! Just keep faith and be patient and hopefully it will continue to improve for you. How bad was your SSNHL? Jc.
@@wobekillin9991 it started with my common cold on 26th January, as a work as a professor at a college of nursing, i was asked to conduct and officiate republic day celebrations and when i woke up in the morning, i could barely speak, could barely swallow anything because of irritation in larynx, and almost complete deafness in the left ear. Even then i did my duties and went home to rest thinking rest will make it all go away. Took some antipyretics and antibiotics and three days later, i could experience that my overall health is getting better, except my hearing. Reading on google and watching on TH-cam about hearing loss made me scared more on third night. Went to see a very good and renounced ENT specialist on 30th January as they diagnosed me with Otitis Media. Said my nose and throat infection transferred to my left ear by Eustachian tube. prescribed about three to four medications and after a week, i was feeling better. Today, i believe my hearing is 95% restored, but the main issue it tinnitus, and it is genuinely persistent and prominent. I can hear the ringing more when i’m in a quiet area. I loved being in a quiet places and now i’m scared to be in a quiet area. I read somewhere Tinnitus itself is not a disease rather than it is a symptom that something is wrong in the auditory system, which includes the ear, the auditory nerve that connects the inner ear to the brain, and the parts of the brain that process sound. I also read about Tinnitus that the greatest majority of new tinnitus cases will resolve within 6-12 months of onset. I am hoping i’m one of them as i am a MAJOR AUDIOPHILE, spend quite a huge account of money on good quality earphones, headphones and home theatres. I can’t imagine living with this constant ringing in my left year for the rest of my life. I’ll try to do everything that i can, even if it costs me to proceed to a surgery. Let’s just hope it doesn’t come to that. Thank you JC, for talking to me. I do feel better about it talking to you here. Let’s connect on any social media platform, if you’re comfortable, thank you, EL!
This makes me sad :( I've experienced this, and I'm very poor and have no rights where I am. It's a miracle I recovered my hearing loss, and it was through the hammock.
Very interesting Test!
I feel like I can hear equally in each year. This is DESPITE having had an audiogram that said I lost hearing in my R ear to 55-65 db across the range of frequencies. I have thought since the "onset event" in which I ALSO got BLARING tinnitus with the hearing loss -- that some of the loss of hearing is due to the "fullness" and tinnitus masking. I have another audiogram in 5 weeks to test my hearing.
in the mean time I've had 4 Intratempanic steroid shots in my R ear. I want to some hearing has improved but again, it could be because of dips in the "fullness" feeling in my ear and tinnitus also not as pronounced.
I had extreme neck pain for about a week prior to my hearing loss event. I have no had an MRI of my brain which revealed no cochlea damage, no noted nerve damage, and no other abnormalities. So I am hopeful that I can find medical practioners who will focus on the neck and be able to solve that issue. I should note that in July 2019 I also had sudden onset hearing loss + tinnitus. Which I had thru Dec 2021 until I had a foraminotomy and disectomy to remove a herniated disc -- and I woke up and all my hearing was returned as well as the tinnitus gone. I have a cervical MRI tomorrow to check the spine. I have some tingling my 3rd-5th digits, I'm dropping a lot of things, and I also have shooting pains down my left leg (Lumbar cause I'd think) as other symptoms. Hopeful for answers soon.
But this test would also support the MRI and other ENT related tests that seem like no real issue with my cochlea or related nerves. As the hearing for this test seems equally bilateral.
Same as me i have high frequency hearing loss and tinnitus.....and I have bad poster... heavy neck pain before it's comes.... Day by day hearing getting worste pls say some solution 😭
@@kirthika2379 did you have any jaw/neck pain prior?
I've had some recovery of hearing and "language understanding" (from 36% of words up to 92%). I just got a Starkey Genesis AI hearing aid for my R ear. But I'm still trying to pursue cervical massage/manipulation for trigger points in the upper back and neck area.

I just came back from the range today stupidly not wearing protection at an outdoor range bc I forgot to bring mine. Me not being able to hear for a couple hours out one ear really concerned me so I ended up here. I tried your at home test and I can hear my humming at the same db level on both ears, I guess that means I dont have much to worry about? I hummed with both my fingers covering my ears and not covering my ears and it sounds okay. But my left ear still has a strong ring and slightly muffled noise threshold.
Ps. Me and my fiance were both there shooting at the same location one at a time and she also didnt have protection. But her hearing is fine. She doesnt have any ringing or hearing loss
Yeah I had a gunshot near my right ear and there’s a difference I can feel it. I can hear thank god but I can feel there’s a certain change. Recently I damaged my right ear again because my door slammed violently and the noise compressed very hard which my right ear took a hit and right now it’s bad I can still hear but I’m hearing lots of rings. Waiting for my doctors note. …get better dude it’s life changing.
Did yours end up being permanent? I got back from the range a couple hours ago, I was wearing ear plugs but couldn't really get them to fit right. I'm going through the same thing rn and it's scaring me.
@@TooToneTuffTonyTweakin it’s here and there. I can still hear but there’s constant ringing. I’m going to an audiologist soon… be careful with noises and screeching
@@TooToneTuffTonyTweakin no my hearing came back completely. I was scared for a long time, it was about 3 and a half weeks before I could hear properly again. Once in a blue moon I'll get a slight ringing in that ear but not as often as you think. And it doesn't last too long. With time it gets better
Hearing Problems
I have had trouble with hearing most of my life, mainly Neural-Deafness and Acoustic shock disorder so in speech, what I thought I may have heard is not always what was really said or complete. Like when someone says “The cow jumped over the moon” what it can sound like to me is, “da ow umpt ower da noon”, however I look at lips while listening and my brain is highly trained to extrapolate and interpret, so I still get on in life, although it is stressful at times. Consonants like a P, a G, a D, a J, a, K, a Q a, T, a, B, a V & F, I cannot tell apart. And I cannot hear the S sound, unless it is very loud.
This hearing deficit over works my brain and after a while I get what Audiology calls “Acoustical Fatigue” and so I usually snooze for bit after the struggle.
Acoustic shock disorder
When there is an outburst of loud sound, it shocks my brain to pain, so the loud automobiles with no or poor mufflers, are terrible when they drive by my house. It is no wonder I do not like to target shoot, even with ear plugs on.
Most people that know me cannot fathom this hearing situation, like when they are talking to me a big loud truck goes by or a car without a muffler, they just keep on talking all-through the sound moment and expect me to understand. Any background sound like in a meeting, church, school, etc I am essentially 80% deaf during the background sound play. “You talk well and I hear you well, so I assume that you can hear as good as I do” This in not correct!
I have recently been doing some experimenting with my hearing loss and it looks promising, so any continued luck, I will be glad to pass it on to others.

I'm 66. I lost hearing in my left ear after years of Meniere's symptoms including mystagmus. Basically, an over-pressure in the inner ear causes vertigo-like feelings of imbalance lasting minutes to hours. The loss occurred during an episode lasting 2 hours at 3:00am. Slowly, I am recovering, currently plateaued at 30% hearing. But, tinnitus has doubled in both ears.
I've gone from thinking that I'm a cochlear implant candidate to a hearing aid candidate.
He, I’m 15 years old and had the same problem listening to a pod cast with ear buds and the suddenly when I got off the car couldn’t hear from one ear and this happened 5 months ago but now I got used to it but what are the solution
I had vertigo positional vertigo for about 2 weeks and then I came down with a "cold" (I tested negative several times). I woke up one morning and my ear was blocked. I have been on Antibiotics and Sudafed and nothing has changed. I have a follow up today. They mentioned Prednisone...
I had a loss of hearing in my left ear nearly a month ago. I had a severe nasal infection and it went to my ear and I had an ear infection. I got a ZPack and it healed. Now I have 50% hearing in my ear and got my hearing tested and it is definitely worse than my right ear. I just got out on Prednisone too. I had a bad episode with it years ago. I'm praying 🙏 it is the right drug to take. I'm not at all excited to take it. If it has bad symptoms I'm getting off it.
What is a Zpack?
@@onecrazywheel Hey how was your prednisone course?
@@Doingmybest700 Really fine. I did great. I was on the Carnivore Diet back then and still lost a huge amount of weight even on it. It worked well for me and I got 100% of my hearing back praise the Lord.
I am facing this in my left ear Since Few Days
But I can Detect Little Sound
But it feels so annoying and disturbing
same. im experiencing it in my right ear...is it okay now??
same thing happened to me 2 days ago. how did you treat it?
Best video for knowing symptoms about the type of hearing issue.
Yo, I woke up with almost no hearing in my right ear watch. This video was panicking schedule a visit with a ear nose and throat specialist could not hear out of my right ear went in. He pulled a big ball of wax out of my ear and then I could hear perfectly fine after I was panicking for nothing.
what do you guys mean by humming "shifting" to a side does it take some time of humming before you can tell?
I lost hearing in my right. When to see an acupuncturist. It came back after a week. I also got some pills (traditonal Chinese) and asked to tap my right ear.
My right ear liked this.
I can’t hear out of mine
yeah same, its like i hear "flashbang out" from cs and boom

PLEASE! Does it come back?
My wife found out yesterday that her hearing in her right ear won't come back. She lost hearing in her right ear. How have people managed with this? Our specialist said she would need hearing aids.
How is your wife doing now? I manage with no hearing aids since my right ear hears well. Left ear is profound deaf means no hearing amplifier will be helpful in left ear.
So shit I'm 21 and lost my hearing in my left ear I have chrons and I'm assuming some sort of information got it, it's worse than the chrons hate having to live like this and turn my head around to listen to someone every time.@@lp8688
It's been a little over a week and my right ear sounds a little distorted/muffled. I saw a specialist and he told me I was diagnosed with temp hearing loss. There was no wax build up nor infection and the hearing test came out well. Doc said theres nothing he can do and to wait a month to determine if it worsens or doesnt leave. Anyone else have this and if do did it leave? I'm currently worried especially bc now my other ear is starting to ache and this happened out of the blue. Not sure if my cpap has anything to do it.
Happened to me on 3 day of Covid, everything sounded lower and not as crisp, I have a cpap top idk if the cpap has something to do with it too. I started off having rotating ear pain
Although I can hear. They can not be understood. The left ear feels like it is roaring. Can this be fixed
So at 18 I lost my hearing in the left ear ....at 34 ur telling me it's basically a thing of the past thank God for that
I'm not entirely sure if I have, while having tinnitus I always notice these strange moments where the sound of my computer engine or something suddenly stops and that temporarily triggers my ear or ears to full a tad bit full or like they're close to popping with a slightly louder than usual ringing...
Afraid that it could be SHL I have to talk to the doctors to have the ENT appointment which was expected for 2-3 weeks to be made urgent and happen as soon as possible.
I’m younger and have had tinnitus all my life. I’ve gotten what you’ve described many times in my life, multiple times a year. It sound like someone turned off my hearing for a few seconds, then it will return with louder ringing for a bit, then usually go back to normal within a few minutes. If you learn anything from your appointment do let me know, I’ve gone in for check ups many times and haven’t been able to diagnose anything.
This hit me, left ear, July 25th 2022.. 7 months now.. I will say, when I 'hum', I can hear something (humming) in my left (bad) ear and good (right) ear to, of course.. I truly feel there is fluid behind my eardrum. When 1st diagnosed, by 3 different (MD) Drs, all said fluid behind the eardrum. Then, after loopholes with my (then) insurance I finally get to an ENT Dr about 6 weeks later, & after a hearing test, etc, they say this shows no fluid behind the eardrum.. *I just don't think a hearing test is 100% accurate*. I ask both the physicians asst and audiologist this same question at different times.. What if, I did have fluid and by the time I got to them for them to check most or all was gone BUT! like any fluid, it dried on the backside of my eardrum & area, and possibly the little 'bone' structure, not allowing them to perform like they should.? BOTH said, that's really an awesome question, never crossed their mind(s) and neither had an answer.. IT was left at that. Having issues with sinus in my ears all my life, I honestly feel like there 'is' fluid or some issue behind my eardrum.. Maybe!?? OR could be both that and SHL?
Thank you!! Any thoughts, PLEASE share..
Blessings

Hi I'm there with you too. Woke up this morning and felt my hearing was slightly off on my right ear. It's causing me to feel unbalanced and dizzy. I can sense either the inner tube of my ear might be inflamed which is causing me to feel dizzy. I hope it's temporary. I haven't decided to go see a doctor yet. But I do feel anxious and a sense of anxiety because I keep thinking about my hearing. Have to gotten better? BTW, as we age our body starts to change. I only started just having ear issues in my 40s. I'm turning 42 this yr and I've already had 3 episodes of temporary hearing loss.
@@jonathanfiel6215 If you haven't gone to an ENT, go ASAP!! Seriously. I could not get in for 6 weeks and this attributed to my deafness. If I had received steroids in time, I may have hearing now.. But now it's too late so a Cochlear Implant is my next step! U sure don't wanna mess with any part of your hearing, at all.!!!
Get that checked out soon as u can.. I'm now with an Ear Specialist at the Dallas Ear Institute.. He's to do the implant surgery, which is about an hour & a half long.. Usually or suppose to be very little pain afterwards. Maybe a little dizziness afterward, just depends on each person, but that should not last too long, a week, "maybe, if that".. Then after the surgery, the implant will be tried about 2 weeks after the implant is done......
Best of Luck!!
Randy
@@DallasPix Thanks for sharing your story. Yes I'm going to call the doctor and see if I can get in tomorrow morning. My hearing has been acting up for over 12 hrs now. So far, I haven't noticed it getting any worse, yet. It's definitely a scary feeling when you feel normal one day then all of a sudden something like this comes along and can be life changing. I wish all the best of luck my friend with your future procedure(s). I hope you find comfort and can feel normal like all of us that wish for that. God bless🙏
@@jonathanfiel6215 Amen, and thanx!! Good luck also.. If I have a change or end up with the cochlear implant, which I think I'm heading that direction, I'll TRY to remember to update here..
Blessings,

@@DallasPixDid your problem get better?
I just lost my hearing in one ear. Loud ass ringing headache is slight. Lost my hearing in about 6 hours. On prednisone 1st day.. no improvement. I'm sure it's from my Lupus.
Hi how are you? I guess this autoimmune conditions are causing it. I have hashimotos autoimmune condition too and I recently got affected with SSHL in left ear profound deafness.
@@lp8688 My hearing CAME BACK!!! With injections....and Prednisone. Truthfully I'm scared to death it will someday return again. But there is hope n I wanted to let u know!! Im hearing very well today. I didn't believe that would happen.
i am going to the doctor tomorrow, but here is where it came about. it is my right ear. ever since i was about 15 or so i have often had a lot of wax build up every few months it seems. in fact my grandmother had the exact same thing maybe it is herditery, not srue.
anyhow, normally i get it removed ever3-6 months, however, i am pretty sure it has been almost , or maye over a eyar since last time they were cleaned.
my right ear has always been the one to have more build up then the left.
and recently it has gotten gradually more and more "full" and over the past few weeks i slowly noticed that ear is slowly becoming harder to hear in the th eleft albiet i think ther eis wax in both.
last night i was tryign to flush them both out with warm water and a ear cleaning bulb fo rabout 10-15 minutes. i had jsut only a very minor tiny tiny tiny bits barely come out. albiet at one point i inadvertantly think i might have gotten the bulb tip too far in my ear, not sure if i hit my ear drum or not, although it didn't hurt at all.
but then i was going to try doing H peroxide, but it put some in and i didn't feel any bubbles, i think i opeend it almost 2 years ago maybe it is no good, so i immidialy rinsed the ear otu.
but i spilled some on me.
so i took a shower and tried in each ear for a fwe minutes to let water drain my ear of wax, with warm water.
not sure it did much. although i think for several seconds here and there i did have the shower strem from the head of the water sometiems it went direcly into the canal, not sure if that was too much pressure? but again no pain was casued. and the ear felt fine other than the alredy muffled sound but this morning when i woike up and since the rest of the day the hearing in that ear is siginficantly less than the left ear , although i am not deaf in it.
i am not sure if maybe i have tons of wax and in addition maybe got some water trapped in with it, or maybe wax plus high level irritation.
any thoughts?
i hope i didn't do anything to injure it
What about hearing loss in both ears upon standing up? Only lasts a minute. Hissing sound. ????
How are you now
My wife lost hearing suddenly when she was hospitalized for auto immune Condition, she was on steroid IV and all of a sudden she lost her hearing. The very next day the doctors injected steroids in her ears, however the right ear has no hearing at all and the left one has about 10%, she get her second steroid dose after week, still no success, she is suppose to get her 3rd shot on 21/7/2022. She is very depressed so I am..She has been almost paralyzed below her waist and her left hand and now this hearing loss.. we have a 2 year old daughter. I don't know how she can get back her hearing atleast while she is fighting with her auto immune Condition.
How is your wife now? What is her autoimmune disease? I have autoimmune disease too and lost my left ear hearing completely due to unknown nerve weakness. Probably due to autoimmune.
@lp8688 she had 2 diagnosis, Lupus & GBS, which is CIDP now, It's been more than an year now, we have settled with this problem, we moved to India from Trinidad & Tobago, she got a 3rd relapse this year Jan, however everything in control now, finally we got excellent doctors, now I have more knowledge about her condition and how to deal with, we have hope that all this will ease up in coming years with high possibility of her regaining everything she lost...when did you get your diagnosis of auto imminune? which one is it? where you from?
@@litjukebox Good to know that she is recovering and you have got amazing doctors treating her. Hopefully she will become healthy and normal very soon. I have autoimmune hashimotos thyroiditis since I was 20 and recently got affected with SSNHL in left ear at 27 years old. I'm from India. Doctors aren't sure if it is autoimmune or a poor circulation issue which caused nerve death in left ear.
Ear infection (after getting over bad cold) started 6 days ago. They’ve hade me on a 10 day regimen of antibiotics (1 in am 1 in pm)... still no improvement with hearing. How long til I get my hearing back?
I started feeling hearing loss in my right ear since last night and went to the emergency department right away today. I’ve been given 40mg oral Prednisone once daily for three days. On the audiometry, I had a loss of 60-65 decibels in the mid frequency range of sound. Is it concerning? Asking people who faced this issue, did it resolve? Really scared
I woke up one day deaf in one ear. Its been 5 months i didnt recover completely. I cant hear very well high frequencies and my ear keep having that noise 24/7
We moved into our cabin in TN in June. In September I started experiencing hearing loss in my right ear. I went to three doctors. One was an ENT. None of them could figure it out. We moved into a different home in November and it went away completely and never came back. I have no idea why…?
I’m praying this happens to me mines been COMPLETLEY gone for 3 weeks now been on all sorts of medications now awaiting CT/MRI scans
Greetings. Anyone else suffer unilateral SSHL, receive Prednisone only to have their hearing return with Dysacusis?
Thank you!
Anyone have any issues with dental implants and deafness. I had an implant last November and in the following weeks my hearing dissolved. No one is talking about this idea.
My brother age 17.he also hearing loss both ears due to one day few ext Nov 18, 2021. We early to start the treatment to give ah steroids iv injection and Intra tymponic steroid injection. In respectively 3 weaks but no improvement. Now what we can do it. All medical reports are normal, MRI , CT , Blood test , Immunity also
How is his hearing now?
I got diagnosed for sudden hearing loss around 2 years ago, it really kicked my ass , done tests and the doctors told me that nothing they can do for me, it gives pain, pressure around the ear and brain, hard to hear, vertigo, burns and more, one day I did some research for supplements and I found that vitamin B12 might help, and I gave them a shot, now I feel lots better. Hopefully it can help your brother too. Good luck
i suddenly lost my hearing two weeks ago. i'm 17 and i have now moderate hearing loss (i did a hearing test) the causes are still unknown but it isn't a conductive problem. it's so complicated to get appointments for all the exams, i think i'll never get my hearing back... oh and btw, the am under a steroid therapy for two weeks but i see no change... anyone for who it worked ??

Did your ear come back
I wish I saw it before it was too late :(
@AMWF I really don't know. TBH, it is hard to notice, i felt confusing, but i didnt know what was disturbing me. later I noticed it while testing my headphone.
The doc told me about things that causes this, like infection, loud noise, sometimes ear clog etc etc, but they cant tell exactly what caused my hearing loss.
I saw many videos and read articles about hearing loss, but IDK why i found the most important one last :'(
@AMWF whoa dude!!!!? I am not going to reveal all my personal info here. the world is a scary place.
if u r experiencing some problem like this, I would suggest go visit a Ent doc ASAP! even tell them about this video, about "sudden hearing loss". best of luck bro.

@AMWF how long did it take u to see a doctor and did your ear come back
