Hi, Try This, put a foam ear plug in your good ear , nice and tight, and listen and feel it expand in your ear, takes about 25 seconds. It blocks about 95% of sounds in the mid and lower range. Walk into your class room and see which voices that you can't hear. Now, you can't have ANY hearing...

Hi, X1heavy My name is Craig and I have finally found a good solution for myself, about being in the world with only one ear. A while back, I ordered two, "BONE CONDUCTION WIRELESS HEADPHONES", one an IDONN F1, $47, and the other an AFTERSHOKZ AIR, $100. and paired the AIR up with my...

Ollie will be with you always, In his eyes. I know how you feel, my dog Munch passed away in my arms, after 17 great years in the San Juan Mountains ( 34 years ago), and she looked up at me and said, "I Love You and Put Me to Work", like all dogs do in my opinion. I still have a picture of...

I think that my Bone Conduction devices could work with Morris Code, because I can Feel the pulses on the bone just outside of my ear. That's what the Tinnitus in my brain sounds like "Morris Code", now all I gotta' do is cypher it.

I have had the same result with people when I say "what", or I'm hearing impaired, or "could you speak up". All of these seemed to be "red flags" to some people, and that puts me at a disadvantage. Being confident and showing confidence, to me, is most important, so anything I can do to put...

"Sense of Balance" seems to have nothing to do, with anything about "sense", it has everything to do with what's happening in the inner ear. In my case, all the little "hairs" in my right ear went away, instantly, and Vertigo crept into my life. I had already had a bit of tinnitus, but now...

Hello DEAF DUCKY, Because I could "talk" like Donald Duck, (interesting topic for the Deaf from Birth, community) kids thought it was funny and started calling me Duck, everybody started calling my Duck. I had already been familiar with the word "duck", and after 35 years on construction...

My bone conduction head phone(s), my Kindle Fire, my Samsung 7, and Bluetooth, have proven to me, to be the cheapest, and easiest way to "experiment" at home, and set myself on a new path, to be able to "communicate" with all people, whether in my home, or out and about. I have NOT found...

with me, the deeper tones in my one ear, sorta vibrate the other tones out of the way. sound is soo discombobulating, for me to cypher. Being "hooked up" with my conduction pieces and bluetooth, allows me for the first time in 6 years, to be able to concentrate on the "important" sounds, and...

Hi Annie, learning more and more from you about these things. for me, my right "ear" nerve is 100% gone, so 4 times the sound comes into my left ear, and I can not tell where. quite dangerous actually, and that's why I started down this path of writing about my feelings about building back the...

I have made up a little White Board, that I show pe0ple who won't look at me, that reads, "I am hearing impaired, so please speak up, and talk to me with your eyes, and I WILL understand you" . With this "set up" that I have developed for myself, I can go out into the world with much more...

Hi, was it you that talked about going to a "deaf" party, where they turned up the "vibrations" loud and all had big balloons full of water? It instantly hit home with me, because I have allot of experience with water,...I've been a Colorado Master Plumber since 1978, and I learned my trade in...

A couple of stories. My son Evan and his family retired from the U S Army, after 21 years & 14 days:welcome::dance2::dance2:He has an Italian family and they came here to celebrate and Transition back to Italy. With the Virus, it kept him here for 55 days, instead of the 15 that they had...

I'm with you about not emotionally ready for CI, or in my case, going in there and "cementing" the crack shut and hoping for the best. I will try to relate to you what it was like for me, when outta the blue, a friend sends me all the info on the bone conduction head phones. My first BP was a...

Saw a sign today that said, "HUMANKIND"...BE BOTH.

and a few Grateful Dead speakers, in my life. I know that a blind person can "hear" objects in front of them, can a deaf person see deeper into things? I tried hearing aids , for awhile, but the doctors couldn't understand why I only wanted one, and , except having it paired up with tv, they...

thank you deerheart12 for responding. It's a lonely, confusing place here in my half deaf world, and I can 1/2 imagine being deaf, but trying to give space to my brain to make new pathways is the most important thing now. I have a question(s) can a deaf person understand, or even get a...

7 long years ago, I was struck down by a load of granite slabs, but survived, by the Grace of God. I woke up in the hospital, and along with the broken bones, (which would heal) I was unable to hear the slightest thing in my right ear, but a "tinnitus" like sound, coming from the spot where...
