I can understand people without reading lips and my audiologist says with my hearing aides i have near close to perfect hearing (though I disagree, because i use closed captioning and won't watch videos on youtube without it.)
So ask him for one and ask him how he knows what level of hearing you have without an audiogram and ask him whether or not the ear infections could be making your hearing level fluxuate?
So,
I can hear pretty well with hearing aids, but I can't speak at all due to a speech impediment caused ny physical issues with my face and I use sign language.
What does that make me?
My parents said I did it and it disguised my hearing loss until I was 2. They found out I had a hearing loss because I didn't react when people said my name out of ear-shot. >.>
Hello, I'm an undergraduate student at Gallaudet university. I'm hard of hearing (wear BTE hearing aids in both ears). I"m also nonverbal.
Pleased to be here. I might like it here I think. Actually, I think I might just stick around!! :wave:
Right now I have a sidekick 2008 but I'm unsure if I want to go for the new sidekick that's coming out.
What's the best plan out there in your opinion? :hmm:
