Any updates

Same problem is me?..

[@melbourneentgroup532]

Hi Guys - if you have had sudden sensori-neural hearing loss, and its been a few months, an MRI is often performed to exclude the uncommon central causes of hearing loss, such as a growth along the nerve of hearing. If this is normal, then there is still a small chance your hearing is going to improve by itself, but the chances markedly diminish after the first 6 months. Depending on the severity of the hearing loss, and the impact it's having, you may benefit from a trial of a hearing aid. Hope that helps - Cheers, Paul

Tinnitus????

[@melbourneentgroup532]

Hi Volkam - are you asking whether steroid injections can get rid of tinnitus ?

[@Mohitsingh-uc7fy]

@@melbourneentgroup532 yes.. Can it help in tinnitus?

[@melbourneentgroup532]

@@Mohitsingh-uc7fy - where that tinnitus is due to acute sudden sensorineural hearing loss, yes, it may well indirectly improve your tinnitus; however if your tinnitus is longstanding or unrelated to sensori neural hearing loss; then I am unaware of any evidence that it can help..

As anyone tried this steroid for tinnitus?

[@melbourneentgroup532]

Hi there - certainly if that tinnitus is from sudden sensorineural hearing loss or Ménière’s there may be some therapeutic benefit.. but not all tinnitus is the same condition so would be highly dependent on the cause. thanks for watching and commenting ! Cheers, Paul

@@melbourneentgroup532 - my tinnitus was noise induced. I’m on day 5 of 60mg prednisone. So far no symptoms. I came across a guy that had prednisone on day 2 after shooting 50 rounds through a 9mm. His ringing stopped after about the 3rd week. I’m 3 months in, maybe too late but still worth a shot.

[@MsCubanmex]

@@Jas_01101 my tinnitus has diminished significantly since starting the steroid shots 4 weeks ago. Theyve also helped me with vertigo. Not much with hearing loss though

[@Jas_01101]

@@MsCubanmex- How long have you had tinnitus for and what caused it? How much hearing loss do you have? I took some oral prednisone at about the 3 month mark. I think it helped reduce my ringing a little bit. Or at least the tone has changed to a less intrusive sound. I also made a video it’s on my channel if you care to watch. Thanks.

@@Jas_01101 i started with tinnitus on September 6 2020 when i lost my hearing. I woke up and my hearing was gone completely, i had severe vertigo and nausea, and bad tinnitus. Sounded and felt like i had a blow dryer buzzing in my ear all day.
After oral steroids, the tinnitus continued, up until I started the steroid shots a month ago....either the shots helped, or im getting used to the tinnitus. No one knows what caused my hearing loss.
