Will I regain my hearing in left ear?

Thank for your response. I'm sorry you haven't had luck. I never had any hearing loss whatsoever. The doctors are calling it sudden hearing loss/sud8 den deafness. I am so uncomfortable and devastated. Everything sounds like an echo or roaring. I don't know how I'm going to live with this if it can't be fixed. I did go to hyperbaric oxygen therapy chamber today. The first 15 min my ears hurt from the pressure change. The dr told me to sip water, swallow, same stuff we do on a plane. When the pressure stabilized it was okay. Then coming out of it, the pressure was let down I guess and my ears began popping. She said to do nothing that my ears will stabilize automatically. However, it's now 8 hours later and my right ear, the good one, is still popping. I have an appt to go again tom. I'm desperate to try whatever will work. I'll most likely go. Inside the chamber, I was able to watch TV. It's so hard to talk an listen to anyone and being a teacher that's a tough one! (Sound is horrible)

How old are you? We're you subject to the loud jet plane noise outside the plane on the ground? In the military, my left ear was permanently injured.. by loud noises to my left side.. another problem with the middle ear could be arthritis that caused those little bones not to recover.. in my case the hair like cells in the inner ear are now flat.. blown flat.. will not recover.
@jcj123 How are you doing now?
@jcj123 I have hearing loss. It came over many years ago I guess but I never realized it until it was too late. I now wear 5000.00 hearing aides that my elderly mother bought for me. Even with them I don’t hear very well. I sympathize with your situation. Suddenly losing your hearing must have been so devastating. I pray 🙏 that things get better for you in the future.

Distorted hearing has been very tough for me to cope with. I’m almost two years with it now.
I was worried about the increased pressure in the chamber. I hope your ears clear and you feel better. Some people have very good result with the treatment.
Please keep us posted on your progress.
