If you had been subjected to a life-threatening high body temperature (106.5+ F, spinal meningitis), your cochlears would make for a poor candidate in benefitting from most form of treatment of cilia hair regrowth.
The problem is the fibrocyte nerve pathways (the ones embedded in the wall of the cochlear spiral) are basically heated to death through bursting/disintegration of its Mylar sheathings of its nerve cells in the cochlear pathway.
Although, not much research is done with regard to the temperature level in various part of the body notably inside the skull region during such an infection, it is arguable that cochlear is located in the hottest zone of the body given the locality of eustachian tube, inner ear and throat region being a harbor of Infectionous activity.
Not an expert here but a pretty serious consumer-based researcher of CI.
