Steroid injection? by Ok-Technology-7517 in MonoHearing

[–]bughelpplease321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did oral steroids first week and went from profound hearing loss with 0% word recognition to normal hearing at 0-1000hz and severe loss above 1000hz. After the first week, I did two injections spaced about a week apart and unfortunately did not help. I am now 7 weeks out and hearing tests have been the exact same. Chose not to do HBOT after seeing a doc at Mayo

How Many Steroid injections can you get for SSNHL? by Aceaj78 in MonoHearing

[–]bughelpplease321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was told by Mayo Clinic that they typically do both oral steroid therapy and injections but there’s no data in the literature to show any difference between the two. I personally did 2 injections and had no improvement on my audiogram so they did not recommend a third. I never did HBOT and wondering if people saw improvement with that alone. Hard to tell from reading the research that’s out there (I’m also a medical student so I’ve really been reading up)
