I have had sig hearing loss in my left ear & constant ringing & pain, the right ear has perm nerve damage & hearing loss due to a violent assault last year. I went to the ENT specialist today & he said he thinks it is nerve damage & a tumor, My question is what are the symptoms of a tumor & what can be done if it is & will I regain the hearing & will the ringing & pain go away? Im scheduled for a MRI for 1/6/2012 Thanks
