Sudden Deafness before last treatment of herceptin

[LizzElliot]

I have had hearing loss, perhaps, but not anything compared to full hearing loss.
I thought it was my husband mumbling and have complained/nagged him constantly, but when I mentioned I almost wondered if it was chemo, his reply was a resounding "yes".
Since then, talked to my oncologists RN and she says that carboplatin is reported to possibly have an effect of hearing loss in some patients. She said they'd never had a patient experience it. So, it seems I may be their first.
I hope your mom gets the answers and any therapy that might help her regain some hearing.
