Sudden Hearing Loss: What are options if steroids don't work?

Yes, I flew from TX to Wisconsin. And I noticed an immediate loss of probably half my hearing. But doing lots of traveling for my job I before had instances where I would have muffled hearing for a short time that cleared up. So I just ended up thinking this must be an especially bad case of blockage or infection that I needed to simply wait out.

I'm sorry you've had that experience. Two friends of mine both had this happen to them when flying. Now both of them have cochlear implants because the loss of hearing was so severe.

We are fortunate to have options to help hearing loss today that were not available to us even a few decades ago. And the technology keeps getting better. It's important to learn all about technologies that can help you.

Are you ready to do that?
