Steroids are used for sudden sensorineural hearing loss. Most research shows that only helps when given within a few days on the onset of the SSHL. If anyone has a different experience, please share it.

Adult onset hearing loss is very common. Not sure that Covid would have anything to do with it. We don't know much about that yet, but the research I've seen doesn't seem to indicate that Covid is the culprit.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope others will as well.

@nevan 's comment about tinnitus at 4600 hz is very interesting. Until I experienced this recent change, I never noticed tinnitus other than broad background noise.

Now I detect a very distinct tone that sounds frequency specific. I will have to check this.

I also don't notice it at night but it becomes very noticeable when I awake in the morning.

I plan to get another audio gram to see if there is a debatable change from past ones, but I clearly notice a difference as sound is now more distorted.
