She stated that she \u201cpractically can\u2019t hear any high frequencies.\u201dShe then described the stressful process of trying to get medical help quickly. The chess star said she spent days calling her healthcare provider to get an urgent appointment with a specialist. Botez said, \u201cSo, I get my hearing tests, go over the results with my cousin, and I practically can\u2019t hear any high frequencies. So, my hearing is not completely gone, but a big chunk of it is. And I spend all day on the phone, calling my healthcare, trying to get me into an emergency ENT. The day before Thanksgiving, I can get a slot, which ironically was booked for two weeks ahead. So, I call my healthcare, and I push, and I say, \u2018This is urgent, I\u2019m in a short time frame. I\u2019m already a week late into my treatment, by the way, having not been on steroids for a week,\u2019 when you\u2019re supposed to act within 72 hours, if it is sudden sensory hearing loss.\u201dFor now, the 23-year-old says she remains hopeful about recovery. After facing the consequences of wanting to feel the bass in her bones, Botez now urges her fans to take care of themselves.
