I had sudden hearing loss on both the ears around 6 years back. I was advised carbogen therapy 3 times by ENT Dr and continue further 2 times if there is any improvement. There was no improvement. Hearing loss has been 75% in left ear and around 30% in right year. Dr whom I consulted is one of the best in India. Took medicine for about 3 months and stopped as advised by him. He could not tell me the reason for the hearing loss or did not advise me to undergo any test to find out the exact reason. He is one of the best in India. Around 2 years ago, vertigo problem started. I consulted my family Dr with all earlier details who advised me to test blood for Vitamin B12, which was found very low. He said this can result to low blood circulation sometimes and this may be the cause of vertigo. Medicine for improving Vitamin B12 and vertigo (Vertin 16mg) was advised. Stopped medicine for Vitamin B12 when it became OK and continuing Verting 16mg twice a day. Last year, as advised by another ENT Dr, I did MRI of head and nothing wrong was found. The severity and frequency of vertigo has decreased since last few months. Kindly advise what can be the reason for the sudden hearing loss and vertigo.
