Please check down to Dec 4th post by Sherry who had also asked about hearing loss on the BPI side. She had gotten some replies that might help you.

Crystal,
For years, I have been interested in this issue of a possible link between bpi and hearing/speech loss and/or difficulties. While no formal research has yet been conducted, to my knowledge, this is something that people have noted on the bpi side of the body. Maybe it's time that somebody does this important research!
