→ Efficacy and safety of SENS-401 in sudden sensorineural hearing loss: The AUDIBLE-S randomized placebo-controlled phase IIb trial

SSNHL is unrelated to headphone use. It is often idiopathic, so it is unlikely that you caused it somehow. You did the typical treatment (Prednisone), but the outcomes can be quite variable. When are you going to have your next hearing test?

Meta analysis: No difference between intratympanic and oral steroids at all. Combining them also makes no difference. → Intratympanic vs Systemic Corticosteroids in First-line Treatment of Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss

Just my two cents: During my current research, I came across an article about the results from a local ENT hospital’s practice of using Dexamethasone injections with a Microwick. P.S. @Renka also had this treatment, as it is written in her success story...

For me, choosing intratympanic over oral Prednisone wasn’t because I thought there’d be a better outcome, it was because the significant potential side effects of oral Prednisone were eliminated by having Dexamethasone administered by intratympanic injection (whose potential side effects are...

Darn it!

Same here! Just one year in! How about you?

Another supposed cause of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss is possible vascular issues. Does anyone know if poor blood flow will hinder FX-322? Once the blood flow is disrupted can it be fixed or return to normal? Would an MRI pick up on this?

Hello everyone, My tinnitus started in late February two days after catching a cold. I recovered from the cold in 2 weeks, but the tinnitus remained. The most annoying tinnitus is a low frequency hum that at first I didn't know was coming from my left ear. I had TMJ issues on my right, so I...

That would be tinnitus resulting from ssnhl. I believe they were talking about idiopathic tinnitus with no detectable hearing loss. Though, it's good to know tinnitus often resolved when the hearing loss resolved.

Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss (ISSHL) = hearing loss with unknown cause. T that accompanies ISSHL has no known origin:

I don't think so, unfortunately. I have been looking into Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. It sounds like it is most promising within 14 days of onset, which I am almost past...

60 mg prednisone is the standard for acoustic trauma as far as I know. Maybe you are thinking of Prednisolone or Dexamethosone which I believe requires less? Here is one study of many citing that figure. Oral steroid regimens for idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss

Intratympanic steroids versus oral steroids in idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss, hospital-based study Introduction: Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSHL) is defined as a hearing loss of 30 dB or more, affecting at least 3 consecutive frequencies, occurring within 3...

I'll check it out, thanks. By the way, a flat audiogram is not that uncommon in idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss. They come in all kinds of crazy variations, even in reverse slope.

Your study is for idiopathic loss, not acoustic trauma. Which may point to it being better for viral causes since that's suspected to be a common cause of idiopathic loss.

The trauma hospital where I worked had 6 ENTs and 4 outpatient ENTs that provided corticosteroid methylprednisolone injections. None of the hospital associated clinics provided injections. Injections were given for Meniere's disease and idiopathic acute sudden sensorineural hearing loss...

This would seem to support the hypothesis that a recovery in the hearing has a (physiological) positive outcome on the T.

How long did it take them to recover?! And does this count only for those with hearing loss or also people with only tinnitus without any hearing loss?

I wanted to bump this thread. I have found many studies that show promise in intratympanic steroid treatment for tinnitus. Question is, would this work several years after onset? Anyone had any luck with the shots? Intratympanic dexamethasone as an adjuvant to oral imipramine hydrochloride...

Some explanations have been given by an ENT and he mentions an 85% success rate (http://deredactie.be/cm/vrtnieuws/wetenschap/1.2992407). He refers to recovery of hearing, not tinnitus. Sounds a lot to me though, not sure where he got his numbers from. He also mentions that a ringing sound can...

Thanks. I have not had acoustic trauma, but my right ear tinnitus appeared in January when I had an ear infection and the starting symptoms of right side TMJ. I was originally given a Prednisone 10 mg 48 count pack which cleared the infection but no impact on tinnitus. Just wondering if the...

Well that's depressing for my severe hearing loss. Plus, there's another reference to three months. However, it does say that tinnitus is still present 12 months later for 60 percent of patients with severe hearing loss. So 40 percent recovered after the initial three months?! Am I reading that...

I guess it depends what you mean exactly. There are many studies that show that HBOT is effective in treating sudden hearing loss when started fairly quickly (<14 days) after onset and in combination with standard steroid treatments. If the tinnitus is a result of the hearing loss, then...

Maybe this is a negligible thing, but I wonder if there's a data bias in the sense that people seeking out the big clinics are more likely to have an idiopathic cause. The inclusion criteria is basically stable sensorineural hearing loss that's either caused by noise exposure or another sudden...

Reading though again, the clogged ear is definitely is a sign of inflammation. Also, since your had the infection in-between traumatic episodes of hearing loss, the immune system may identify a pathogen before it has established itself in the body well enough to present symptoms, and therefore...

...Ive mentioned earlier. as the professor I've been to said, it is likely that people get ISSNHL (idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss, also known as Sudden deafness or SHL- Sudden hearing loss) but it is on higher (or lower?) frequencies than the average person usually hears. The...

...That study was for idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss not noise induced hearing loss. Most of the time I'm not sure if anything can be done. Sure steroids HBOT etc. are worth a shot, but there really isn't any concrete evidence that anything helps.

Hello. Thank you for your reply. I had a CT scan and an MRI. All clear. My case was idiopathic and could have been reversed if treated promptly with steroids. How have you coped with single sided deafness and T?

I do. I was first (mis) diagnosed as SSNHL. It was really sudden, as in "I woke up in the morning and my hearing was noticeably impaired. When I went to bed, it was fine." If you don't know the cause, then it's diagnosed as "Idiopathic SSNHL". It gets a little trickier because the diagnosis...

Thank you so much for sharing the article. I was not aware that there could be spontaneous tinnitus recovery with ISSNHL. Interestingly, I first experienced hearing loss the end of April, 2020. I was tipped off that something was wrong because I heard an echo in my left ear. Now I describe it...
