hearing loss
my husband woke up one morning and his ear was plugged up. We assumed it was sinus. After acouple days he couldnt stand it because his hearing in both ears is already bad . We went to a doctor and was given steroids. He went to 3 doctors and each time given steroids. He has no hearing in that ear. The ear drum is not damaged. Because it was so sudden, they say it must be a virus. Is there no hope of regaining the hearing? He has trouble now with dizziness
we went to the ER and a family doc. and then the specialist and then the VA ENT He got steroids from each one. Nothing worked. He has dizziness every day.
Geez, he was told "just get used to it." Please get a SECOND opinion; someone who specializes with inner ear disorders. There is something going on with his inner ear and/or possibly his eustachian tube.
Was he prescribed an antihistamine and/or a decongestant?

yes he did, got all the test. He was told, your hearing is gone, its not coming back, get use to it.
