I didn't vote in the poll because I wasn't sure how to vote. We have not been dx'd yet.

My daughter, son and I all get hearing loss. It will be both ears. It will come back.

My daughters is the worst. She loses enough that she has hearing aids for both ears. Nerve damage in both ears that will never come back.
They are afraid she will go deaf.

Steroids do help my daughter. It always brings her hearing back.

My son and I just deal with it. Ours does not go down as low as Holly's does.
We know in a week or two it will come back.

So far, all they know is it's autoimmune. They have no clue which autoimmune disease it is.

Now considering methotrexate for my daughters hearing and other symptoms.
