Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 42 | My husband is 5 months out of treatment (radiation & chemo) and I have noticed and so has he that he can't hear very well out of his left ear (side of treatment). He had a neck dissection 11/06. Prior to his cancer, he was prone to wax build-up and had to go to his ENT about twice a year to have his ear cleaned out. He has scheduled an appointment with him for next week but I was wondering if this hearing loss could be a side effect that others may be experiencing.
