I'm sorry you are going through this, too. My daughter has had a hearing loss, too. She ended up going to an ENT specialty group (above regular ENT). He gave it another name than Lyme, but said he didn't know if it was from the LD or not, but was interested in the LD (didn't poo hoo it at all). He said her hearing (which was definately bad enough for hearing aides on one ear, and probably both) said her hearing sadly would not return to normal. However he was wrong! He was shocked. He told her to really cut the salt, caffeine, and fats in her diet. When she does her hearing is fine. When she doesn't her hearing get's bad again. I hope your hearing returns too!!!!!!
I had hearing loss many times before finally being dx and treated.
I saw one ENT who said that when people come to him with a pattern of hearing such as I have he thinks lyme disease.
