I’d say I lost my hearing in August 2021 (although my first audiogram that showed loss was around a January 2022, this was confirmed by a second audiogram in March). Recovered some hearing in April/May 2022.
My last test was not done in a soundproof booth, but still showed 10dB improvement @ 4khz.
Thank you! I have tinnitus + hearing loss since 6 weeks now. The problem is that I had so many audiograms tested by different ENTS and always had different results. For example in one of my audigrams I have 35db loss 6HZ and in another audiogram I have 15db loss in 6HZ and 35db in 4HZ.
My ENT told me that this is normal and its not always easy to identify the hearing loss in especially higher frequencies and that it is also normal to see 10 to 15db differences between these tests. So the question now is do we have really a recovery or not :D
Ah, I have never been told there is a +\- 15dB range. That’s a huge margin of error!
Very odd, the audiologist who took my last results said that she has only seen improvement on an audiogram in cases of sudden hearing loss (w/wo steroids). She suggested I may have had Covid.
I think we should choose to believe it’s recovery, good for the mental health :)!
Yes it is! I really have 7-8 audiograms done in one month and always with different results :D But yes you are right we should choose to believe its recovery . The Ent in the university clinic told me that its even in the high frequencies possible to recover!!
