    Confused and Concerned — Are My Symptoms Common with SSHL (Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss)?

    No, but the doctor had me on some muscle relaxers for about two weeks in the hopes that it would ease the possibility of TMJ. Sadly it didn’t help much and made my tinnitus worse for that two week period. I don’t seem to have any issues with my jaw that I can pin point, no tightness no...

    Confused and Concerned — Are My Symptoms Common with SSHL (Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss)?

    Update: things are still...well the same. I’ve never had anything chronic like this that doesn’t have anything that makes it better or worse. The doctors always ask me this question and I have no answer for it. Sometimes it’s just worse and other times it’s just not as bad but I can’t for the...

    Hearing a Forceful Crackle Every Time You Swallow?

    I get a similar sound in my bad ear as well. I describe it as two pieces of raw meat being pulled apart. Which is probably exactly what’s happening with the Eustachian tube opening and closing.

    NeilMed Sinus Rinse Caused Immediate Hearing Loss — Any Advice?

    I hope you find some answers soon. Is it possible that sinus pressure you were feeling may have been the fullness from the start of sensoneural hearing loss? Possibly just bad timing? Do you still have 60% reduced hearing?

    Update: I’m on my ninth month with these issues. They haven’t become worse or better. Stayed pretty much the same. had another visit to the ENT who is now treating me for possible TMJ issues. I don’t have any pain or issues in my jaw that I’m aware of but maybe the Dr. is just ruling things...

    Ear Reacts in Like a Broken Speaker to Certain Loud Noises / Pitches / Frequencies

    I woke up one morning with an odd full sensation in my right ear and then noticed that high pitched voices and some sounds from phone or TV were all distorted and sounded robotic. Three days later the robotic sounds went away but the ear irritation/fullness never went away and it’s been 8...

    Confused and Concerned — Are My Symptoms Common with SSHL (Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss)?

    I can 100% say that I was unprepared. I’m working on gaining the strength to do some more testing (MRI) to rule out anything sinister. As chronic dull pain and dull headaches are concerning. But alas my anxiety really doesn’t want to see me in a tube. still yet I appreciate knowing that this...

    Confused and Concerned — Are My Symptoms Common with SSHL (Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss)?

    Sorry for the delayed response. I’m betting that the loud earphones had something to do with it as well. I’m 8 months into this and nothing has changed sadly. I wake up everyone morning with this dull ache or sensation. I also tend to get days and days of dull pain at my temple and back of my...

Three months ago I had a normal day and a normal night, in fact a normal week. When I woke up on a Friday...
