I had a recent complete  loss of hearing in my left ear.It happened in just 3-4 hours.Have seen an ENT speacialist,hearing test shows profound loss.The Dr. put me on 60 mg of prednizone,and is scheduling a scan to rule out nerve problem.All I have now is a terrible ringing and air rushing thru sound in my ear.Any comment or suggestions ?please,feeling worried!!
Thanks
