I have high frequency hearing loss already, though I suspect it is not so much hearing loss per se as it is the tinnitus simply drowning out sounds of similar frequency (my tinnitus is a constant but variable hiss or whoosh-like sound, a bit like tree frogs or crickets).

I would be very upset if this worsened, as I am a teacher and psychiatric nurse, and listening is key to what I do. This makes me think carboplatin may be the way to go. Since posting earlier tonight I did locate more on carboplatin here; for others, I had better luck (more hits) searching for it on google (which led me to the postings here, including my own!) than I did when using this site's search function.

I will be doing a more complete search tomorrow but would appreciate hearing from those treated with, or switched to, carboplatin, especially comparing their side effects and/or outcomes down the road. Thank you all!
