Hi.

Diagnosed with NPC stage 2 yesterday. All a bit bewildering so far. I have had symptoms since January of this year and it's taken quite some time to get a diagnosis. Be nice to converse with others wherever they are on this journey.

I would really like to know from other people's experience with respect to losing their hearing with NPC and whether they used Apple Airpods Pro 3 as an aid to hearing please?

Thank you

Hi,

I'm sorry that you have been diagnosed, I remember how shocked I was when that happened to me. I was in the similar situation, issues with hearing for 6 months and the GP thought it wasn't cancer so I had to push for referral. I finished my treatment at the beginning of June.

I haven't used any hearing aids so I struggled, I wasn't sure what to do. Positive is that the hearing started returning during my first course of chemotherapy. Please see my profile for more info about my diagnosis.

I am sure you will get more responses on the forum, although our cancer is rare, the treatment for it is similar to other head and neck cancers.
