Thank you for replying. I asked because, I didn't do well on Prednisone and was wondering if she had taken a different steroid with success. I started taking Prednisone and although it did help right away with inflammation in my ears. I had lost hearing volume on it as well as tones(highs&lows) after just 1 day of 60mg. spread out mind you throughout the day.

I think my wife was lucky that she had an experienced hearing loss person (me) who was aware that she needed to immediately get to an ENT and start treatment, and that her treatment worked. Her acoustic neuroma shrunk enough to not pressure the nerve anymore and she has had perfect hearing for 5 years since the loss. Good luck with yours.
