Hi Gary,

Thanks for the link, I checked it out and you're right there are lots of issues here. In addition to the cisplatin and radiation Jack was hospitalized for an infection towards the end so he also received a course of antibiotics.

I'm glad to know that your hearing recovered, it's encouraging. We don't mind riding it out as long as we have some idea on what it is. At least the fried eustasian tubes explains why they are not picking anything up on exam. He had a hearing test 2 weeks ago so we have a baseline to compare future evaluations to.

Could be worse...with this kind of luck why aren't more of us playing lotto?
Regards JoAnne
