Well, for now I'm still taking corticosteroids via pills. It seems to be helping a little with my hearing damage but the H is still here and the T is as loud as it has ever been. I'm not sleeping well either but I'm hoping things will get better by the end of the treatment.

Well, I'm back to another round of corticosteroid treatment. The doctor said that since I only have one working ear then we should not waste any more time and it's still worth a shot. (even though I've already had this treatment before...) I'm hoping this will help me recover some of my damaged...

Hi all, I'm completely deaf in my right ear (from birth) but my left ear was just fine until May 2016 when I started to lose my hearing in the upper frequencies (above 4000). I have no idea why... there was no acoustic trauma or anything I can recall. Along with the hearing loss, an awful...

update #2 I'm almost done with the steroids treatment. My hearing has not made a complete recovery but it is enough that I can enjoy music again without it being muffled or distorted! As for my tinnitus - it's still there but it has diminished a little to level which I can tolerate during the...

I woke up at 4:45 tonight after i was finally able to fall asleep somewhere around 1 AM. I listened to crickets on my phone which seemed to have helped. Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll check them out. I'll try anything for a good night's sleep.

The first doctor I went to said there is nothing to do but I went to see a specialist today. He said that because the hearing loss is very recent then there is a chace that steroids treatment might help recover some of the hearing and might even reduce the tinnitus symptoms. I'm starting the...

Thanks guys. It means a lot to have a place to talk about this with people who understand what I'm going through right now. I don't know what caused it exactly. I didn't have the flu or a cold lately. I do hear it in my ear when I swallow or yawn but I think I heard the same sounds even before...

Hi everyone, I have tinnitus for 6 days now. And it has been the worst days of my life. I'm completely deaf in my right ear from birth but my left ear was just fine until a few weeks ago. At first I started hearing distorted and muffled sounds so I figured this is just some ear wax building up...
