My husband’s hearing slowly deteriorated so that a year after his chemo treatment, he was advised to get hearing aids. His MO used to ask every time we saw her if John had ringing in the ears or is he was having problems with his hearing. That did not happen while he was getting chemo but he slowly lost his hearing after the chemo was over.
Your situation may be similar but my husband didn’t have the same symptoms that you are having. It’s best to see the ENT and get your hearing checked. Good luck!
