    Can you learn to lipread online?

    I learned as I was growing up. I never could look people in the eyes because I was too busy looking at their lips trying to make sure I heard right. My mom says I actually did this even as a baby

    Yes the music does go along with my mood most of the time. When I'm bummed its normally Pink Floyd, angry is Disturbed, when happy it could be almost anything. I once had Scotland the Brave (Scotland national anthem) played on bagpipe playing for 3 days. It drove me nuts!!!

    Describe your Tinnitus

    Both ears sound like there is a swarm of locusts or crickets with a fan behind them almost constantly. Occasionally my right ear will have what sounds like the beeps from the hearing test in it too. Other times I swear I hear music that no one else can hear. My hearing aids mask most of the...

    For us, old timers

    I miss roller skating around the rink (we still have a rink but the kids in there are terrible). I also miss the bright colors and big hair. I had pictures of Poison, Ratt and several other bands plastered to my walls. I liked my uniforms too. We wore navy blue plaid skirts and baby blue...

    Claiming hearing aid batteries on welfare

    I can get 24 batteries (3 month supply by their calculations) for $1 under medicaid in NY. Its going to be different for each state and county. Your best bet is to ask your local audiologist what the policy is.

    What Ticks You Off (Most) About Hearies?

    They probably thought that I was going to lose the batteries. I will never know their true thoughts because security threw them out.

    What Ticks You Off (Most) About Hearies?

    The reason they knew it was off was that to turn mine off you have to partially open the battery door. I have phonak extra 211 ha. I'm sure they thought they were being helpful but even with them on I don't hear anything. Its just too loud in the club. All my friends and the bar staff know that...
