    Yeah, I've just recently had a hearing test, and it was better than just before I got diagnosed, but it also took place on a better hearing day. It can't be fluid in my middle ear because I'm still sporting the ear drains living in my ear drums that I had put in three weeks prior to diagnosis. I can still plug my nose and make my ears whistle - it's a cool party trick, too bad I don't go to those kinds of parties anymore.

    Marta, it's best to get your hearing checked on a better hearing day-- that shows what your ears are actually capable of hearing. If you got them checked on a bad day, you wouldn't know how much was damage and how much was just an off day.

    Is a cochlear implant an option for your? They said I could get one for left ear once I get off cytoxan?
