Hearing loss and thyroid medication: Is there a connection?

I am wondering if you had diagnosed hearing loss prior to your current situation. If so, was the doctor who put you on the thyroid medication aware of your hearing loss. You may want to find out if the medication you've been taking is ototoxic. People with hearing loss should be sure that all medical professionals who treat them are aware of it.

@julieo4 sorry to jump in on this and just put a comment on another page which I now cant find: but just found ata.org (American tinnitus assn.) with a 25 page list of medications which can be associated with causing Tinnitus and an article dated 2009 by Dr.Bauman about it... why why why were we not told about possible hearing loss when prescribed medications years ago... I have been on some on the list so long I am surprised I can even hear... and the tinnitus is 24/7 now... very upsetting to read. Now to go back to the list and print and highlight.... but sure are a lot of meds it's shocking. J.
