I am going on Wednesday for a consult with an audiologist to see what options might help me. I have profound loss in my left ear, 90 decibels at lower frequencies and 120 at higher ones. I also have no word recognition. I have had some hearing loss since 09 but the profound loss occurred in April. Based on all of this I think they will probably recommend a cros aid. What should I expect to be asked at the consultation? What is the standard procedure for trying a hearing aid? I am honestly not expecting a lot. Since 09 I haven't had word recognition, just sound that sounded muffled. I would be happy to have that back at this point. How possible is that with a single aid? Should I have higher expectations with a cros than a single aid? I've tried to research but I think I'm more confused than before!
