strange problem please HELP
by drain17, Mar 22, 2008 08:09PM
Hello everybody.
Since this afternoon I'm experiencing a strange hearing problem.
Playing the guitar i noticed something was wrong:
I play a note and I hear the right note in the right ear, and in the left ear i hear a lower one.
For example, playing A 440 Hz i hear 440 hz in the right ear, and 400hz in the other one (don't know if
it is 400hz, 420hz or whatever, just to let you know i hear a slightly lower note).
Don't know if this can help, but I have measles since 8 days.
I called my medic and he told me to wait until monday, then go to the specialist if the problem continues.
I work with music so I'm really worried, so if anyone has an idea please answer me.
thanks,
marco

You may have had a sudden sensorineural hearing loss. Take a look at my blog entry on this problem. You need to be seen by an ENT promptly.
