John has a similar diagnosis, he is now five weeks out of treatment. In addition to what everyone has advised so far, you will need to get a hearing test too, to establish a baseline now in case your hearing is impacted. The treatment is tough but take it a day at a time. You can do it. Best of luck to you.
