  • @pax80a Depends on the extent of damage. Generally speaking, sensorineural deafness is caused by problems with, or relating to the auditory nerve - such as Meniere's disease, which doesn't have a cure.

    Glad that everything's well. :)

  • @pax80a You may have sensorineural deafness. The cochlea also has important implications in balance; you may be having a problem in your right ear. The ENT should conduct additional tests to find out whether there is any nerve/inner ear damage.

  • Thanks, this helps..

  • 128 is better for vibration, but you can use 256 in most cases and get away w/ it. 512 definitely for Rinne and Weber's.

  • yep, 512hz for rinne's and weber's.

    128hz for vibration sense

  • I thought it was 256 or 512

  • I agree.

  • I think this test is better performed with a higher frequency tuning fork (512 Hz instead of 128 Hz)
