Hi there,

I have had three cycles of chemotherapy (5 days, every 3 weeks) and had cisplatin, taxotere and 5FU. I know that cisplatin can cause problems with hearing.

Anyway, for a while now (probably weeks) I get ringing in my ears, but it only last for a few seconds and then goes away. It feels as though I'm going through a tunnel on a train and your ears pop. It only happens once, maybe twice a day.

Has anyone else had any problems with their hearing because of cisplatin?

I have more chemo starting on the 25th Feb but this time I am having just carboplatin along with the radiotherapy.

Hayley
