Wow... that would WONDERFUL if it did come back! My hearing was the first thing to be affected and with the hearing loss came severe constant ringing in the ears. Unfortunately the ringing is actually worse than the loss sometimes, since it masks whatever I might be able to hear otherwise. It also means hearing aids wouldn't do a thing for me (most likely).
I have had one ear regain a small amount of hearing since I've been on the meds... nothing drastic though.
