@SleeplessSoul Thanks for that info. My chiropractor said that if he thinks there's ANY risk, he won't adjust him. He's very cautious. But my dad still works and is in great health otherwise. Our doctor is a DO (Doctor of osteopathy) and he does adjustments as well. He's been our doctor for 30+...

I saw the posts about that but hadn't seen a follow up. Since my dad is older, he's not necessarily interested in that. I think it's very interesting and depending on what causes they hydrops to begin with, it could very well be a cure. I was just talking to my dad about seeing a chiropractor...

They did a series of tests but the one that was most important was the ECoG test. Cochlear Hydrops (as I understand it) is the same as Meniere's disease but without vertigo. My dad does not have vertigo. Just the fullness in the ears, pitch issues, hearing loss and a sound of "whooshing" and...

I'm not sure about eustation tube dysfunction but I'll ask him. They've run several tests but he's not sure what they all are. I believe the ENT he saw had him on sudafed or another prescription decongestant when this all first started with no relief but I'll confirm that too. He's somewhat...

Yes - he gets hearing tests for work annually so when this started, he had a good baseline to compare it to. He has been seen by an otolaryngologist for the past 4 months - they have done hearing tests, ECoG, as well as others. They're the ones that have had him try everything I listed. They're...

Thanks for your reply Glynis! My dad doesn't have any vertigo or nausea. It's just the hearing issues that are bothering him. Hearing loss - part of which is due to age and being around loud machinery. But this sudden loss as well as the tinnitus are really reducing his quality of life. I'll...

My dad was diagnosed with Cochlear Hydrops after over a year of getting the run around. He's 71 years old, had quadruple bypass surgery in March. He has tried allergy medicine, saline rinses, betahistine, low sodium diet, and is now on week 2 of diuretics - nothing helps. He has the fullness...

My dad was able to get Betahistine from his dr (in colorado) - the catch is that you have to have it filled at a compounding pharmacy and pay cash. I believe it was about $75 for a 30 day supply (16mg 3x day).
