Hearing is about audio too, right?
Somewhere on this board, someone recently pointed out that there was no point in buying HD music to play on a cheap hifi system.
Well, I thought I was reaching the point where my hearing loss was making spending money on anything audio foolish. But I went to an ENT who has help me dramatically. It turns out that allergies, and swollen sinuses and ongoing congestion can create hearing loss. And that a regimen of antihistamines and the likes can not only improve your breathing, but help your hearing! My hearing actually is provably better, according to tests, while I'm on the antihistamines.
Will wonders never cease

I've never thought about that before, but it does make sense. Some people do have to go to specialists that are called "ear, throat and nose" doctors so I guess they are all tied together somehow. Glad to "hear" you're getting better.

Hi, All true plus sometimes ear wax can get compacted in the ear canal and cause hearing loss. A ENT can get it out.

Good Listening

I'm glad that your hearing loss wasn't permanent. That's wonderful news!

I think maybe I should run to an ENT doctor myself. I think I have some wax buildup and I can't get it out.
