Sudden instant hearing loss should be flagged as a medical emergency. I was only treated with a decongestant and should have been treated with steroids immediately. I’m 66 days out, 4 specialists, an MRI and MRA…and now told I will never get my hearing back because treatment should have started on day 1. Spread the word so doctors know it’s an emergency

I’m 6 weeks since the same thing happened in my left ear. I’ve seen 3 specialists and they all say give steroid injections one last chance but none think it will work. It is a real phenomenon that happens to many people! Since I’ve told friends…3 admit that they’ve had the same thing and just wear hearing aids. So sad that this can’t be cured.

I live in Louisville,KY and have sudden sensorineural hearing loss. I’m 36 days from when it occurred and have been told I have only 60 days to get my hearing back. I’ve had MRI and MRA and oral steroids to no avail. Who should I go see now?
