Re: Hearing loss after carboplatin

I also experienced hearing loss but only one ear, it was annoying cuz it was so muffled and I have always had extremely good hearing, my oncologist said it could happen and that it will most likely come back. I lost 30% in one ear, it did come back but it took a long time and I'm still at 10% loss. Hang in there,,the many side effects we experience usually stop, eventually...ugh. The worst is over. Good luck!
