I'm really worried about my wife. She's been dealing with a tasteless tongue and can't smell anything, and this has been going on for about three months now. She's 35 and of medium build. What's going on? Could it be something serious? What should we do next?

I've had this hearing issue for 10-12 years and seen many doctors without a clear solution. Recently, an audiometry test showed my right ear is fine but the left ear doesn't pick up any beeps at any frequency. The doctor said there's no treatment except a hearing aid and ruled out surgery unless it's a bone or tumor issue. They mentioned one surgery option but said it's not guaranteed since it might be a nerve problem. Is there really no way to fix this 100% or am I stuck with a hearing aid for life?

ent review is advised.
