I also have ringing in my ears and I am 17months out of treatment. I too had Cistplatin. I have so many things that I never had before. For instance, my eyesight is deteriorating rapidly. I have had three changes of glasses in the last six months. Pre treatment I had 20 /20 vision, but had to wear glasses for reading, now I am myopic,and to read my pc monitor I have to be about six inches away from it. Plus I woke up one Saturday morning in November and looked in the mirror and saw that I had curly, no not just curly hair, but ringlets. LOL.
