silly question but...

[Dave2you]

has anyone heard of hearing loss as a byproduct or Symptom of apnea.

My hearing is always worse when I am overtired. at the end of
the day I am Struggling to hear things.

I used to get horrible ringing in my ears, but since Cpap that has gone away.

I know I am reaching. LOL

I have heard this mentioned before as resulting from apnea but no real reason as to why.

I found this article which is interesting: http://ajrccm.atsjournals.org/cgi/conte ... 159/4/1351

This study concluded such hearing loss was not related to loud snoring.

It is amazing how much is not yet known about the effects of OSA!
