I did yesterday and she refused to prescribe them because it was “too late for them to be effective”

Thank you for the support and advice this forum has been helpful for my mindset and attitude I’m taking in everyone’s advice to see whats right for the next move

I’m only 21 it’s a big sacrifice to never go to a club or bar again, I’ll definitley wear protection tho

Sadly I couldn’t see any doctors today our system in Canada is pretty broken, the downside of it being “free” I have an appointment Wednesday with an ENT my family trusts very well who’s helped us a lot and I’m going first thing Monday morning to my family doctor to ask for the prescription...

pdate if anyone cares, hearing is starting to slowly improve, if my head is on the right angle I can hear crickets briefly I hear buzzing of my ear trying to pick up the missing sounds. Honestly it’s keeping me very optimistic about having some sort of recovery

Are steroids effective 6 days later ? Also I’ve heard hearing can recover weeks later for a temporary threshold shift

Yes it did get worse

mediocre at best ? I get a lot of mixed responses of the likelihood of recovery. And also I had mild tinnitus in my right ear for about 2 months before this event which felt like it went away completely ent told me it was because of my jaw but clearly the noise brought it back

I’m willing to accept some loss, seen a few studies that showed improvement up to 2 weeks after exposure. I know the online tests aren’t super accurate but it looks like I’ve lost pretty important frequencies in 4K and 6k

I went to see a doctor who gave me a referral to an ENT and basically told me “wait a week or 2 before you check your hearing” telling me the steroids aren’t effective this long after exposure and are only used for SSNHL but a lot of people have recommended it so I might go back tomorrow morning...

That’s a bit of relief, I’ve noticed when I stay in bed away from sound my tinnitus is very mild, but if I’m out and about it is more bothersome. I’m really scared about my hearing

My bigger worry is my loss of hearing more so than my tinnitus. Do they go hand in hand ?

But what about just the loss of hearing

progress can be made that much later ? After a few weeks ?

Hi so it has been 6 days since I went to a concert with no protection too close to the speakers. There was a smoke machine that caused pain in my right ear when it went off. Since then I have ringing and noise sensitivity in my right ear and online tests are showing me a 30 decibel loss at 4...

Update 5 days, woke up with very little ringing but still noticeable, hearing hasn’t really improved

did it at least improve ? I can’t hear crickets or anything high from my right ear

Ever or until I recover ? Do you think my hearing will come back

Do you know how long it took you to recover ? It’s been 4 days and I can’t hear crickets or other high pitched sounds still feels very muffled

What worries me is it’s only my right ear, I’ve had tinnitus in it before and an ent said my misaligned jaw was mostly the casue the symptoms went mostly away but this concert set me back to worse than ever

My right ear has been ringing, extremely muffled, can’t hear crickets or other high pitched sounds for 4 days since a loud concert. Is there still hope it comes back? It’s really stressing me out not being able to hear out of it and I’ve also noticed when I hear people yell or loud noises my...

So around May I noticed some tinnitus in my right ear, online test showed some high-frequency loss. I’ve since seen an ENT and audiologist. Hearing test showed exactly what the online one showed and the ENT found that my jaw is not aligned. Symptoms calmed down big time I couldn’t even notice...

I noticed when I was at the event my ears hurt quite a bit when the smoke machine went off and evene when people spoke in my ear

Hi, I’m new on here and I really just need to know if anyone has dealt with something similar. About 2 months ago I noticed ringing in my right ear, did some online tests and it showed some high frequency loss. Problem wouldn’t go away so I went to an ENT/audiologist who’s test showed the same...
