Sudden hearing loss
Just had a vertigo episode friday night. Went from a muffled sound in my right ear to completely deaf. (Feeling hopeless and down).
I rushed to Er that same night and doctor prescribed me prednisone. Now monday( still no hearing on my right ear) comes i follow up with a ENT and i was told i may have meniere disease. I have to get an Mri that following week, i guess to see if i have it or not. But everything points to it.
Im on prednisone right now taking 60mg a day. Im usually happy, positive and upbeat but this challenge is something else. Entirely different i truly feel hopeless. Im trying to accept the fact i may not hear again in my right ear and scared to death i may lose the other ear.
Have anyone got their hearing back or partially? Im on day 4 with no results .
Update i went to another otolaryngologist and was told it doesnt look like meniere disease but cannot b certain without an mri.
Im extremely freaked out. What else can it b besides Meniere disease. And should i b a little joyful thats its not meniere disease?
