First of all, thank you so much for moving me to this group. And yes, I was diagnosed seven months ago. when I called the ENT office and describe my symptoms I was not given an appointment for 72 hours which I now know meant that I lost that window of time when I had a chance to prevent permanent damage. I was put on steroids for 10 days, had an MRI, had 3 transtympanic steroid injections. My right ear was affected and has 3% hearing.
