I was diagnosed with hodgkins disease stage 11B in 1991. I was radiated on my neck and chest for a little over three months. This past year I have had severe hearing loss in my left ear, same side they radiated me. Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks.

    Hello,

    You may want to post your question on the Lymphoma discussion board to reach more members who have had lymphoma or I suggest you contact the American Cancer Society's National Cancer Information Center. Because different treatments my have different effects, they would be best source of information. Cancer Information Specialists are available 24 hours a day at 1-800-227-2345.

    Take care and be well,
