Hello,

Thanks for your query on HCM

"As"per your clinical history I concerned please follow like this -

1)Do check if you have following symptoms present or not -

a)Hearing loss, usually gradual although in some cases sudden and occurring on only one side

b)Ringing in the affected ear

c)Dizziness (vertigo)

d)Facial numbness

If present then do an MRI and for clinical examination meet a [neurosurgeon]

2)If you have no such symptoms present then meet [otorhinolaryngologist]for a clinical exam to rule out viral infection

So treatment depends upon exact findings only

Hope that helps
