Symptom narrative

I experienced loss of hearing after getting a two dose regimen of the Moderna shot in January and February, 2021 and subsequently, On February 14, 2022, getting Covid 19, confirmed by an Abbott Labs Diagnostic test. My Audiologist doctor examined my ears after three and a half weeks of the loss of about 75% of my hearing in both of my ears and prescribed a regimen of Nasal rinse once per day and Flonase once per day. After four plus weeks my hearing slowly returned to pre-covid-19 acuity. Since then, my ears "plug up" with a decrease in hearing ability at the drop of a hat or for no obvious reason. It's a constant problem. I never had anything like this condition before the Covid shots and the subsequent Covid-19 infection.
