Hearing loss after carboplatin
I have finished with my six TCHP chemo treatments and had no noticeable hearing problems during my 18 weeks of therapy. About three weeks after treatment #6, within a 24 hour period, I suddenly had a significant hearing loss. It is like someone stuck ear plugs in both of my ears! I have seen an audiologist and an ENT and I have lost extensive high frequency levels. My oncologist does not think it was the carboplatin because the onset was sudden but no one else has any explanation or any suggestions for curing this. I am terrified this is a permanent hearing loss. It has now been seven weeks since my last TCHP chemo with no improvement. Has anyone else either had or heard of this happening?
