what is wrong with people?! :confused: when I was in NY visiting husbands family for Thanksgiving, we heard on the news about a woman trampled to death after being knocked down trying to get in Wal-mart! horrible! :pissed:

How can "Never heard of them" be an option?? lol

I haven't really done much today, but I was able to study a bit of ASL vocabulary with my new ASL dictionary :) I'm lucky enough to work with someone who also volunteers at a free book store (yes... a FREE book store... it's awesome! :) if you live in or around Baltimore MD, you should...

:birthday: Happy Birthday!!

:wave::welcome: WELCOME!!

I think the scarring on my eardrums is what is causing my hearing loss. My Dr. knows of the scarring and said it's worse on the left than the right, but I feel like I can hear better in my left. When on the phone or having trouble hearing something I always use my left ear. It's a little...

I haven't actually gotten the referral yet, I see my Dr. Dec 14 and will hopefully get one then. I went ahead and made an appt for hearing test with audie on my own without the referral since I figured I might have to make one anyway. I was going to make an appt with ENT but I don't know of any...

I don't live in Rochester, but my husbands family does. His aunt and grandmother are deaf and the rest of the family know ASL. I can ask and find out if they know of any places. :)

"so many times"?!? HOLY COW!!!!:jaw::shock: AHH!! Now I really can't imagine the pain! I hope you're ok now after all that!!

When I called to make an appointment they didn't say anything about an ENT, only a need for a referral from my primary care. I hope they don't do a surprise attack when I get to my appointment and tell me I can't get my hearing checked without seeing an ENT first :shock:

:shock: I guess I'm lucky that my ear infections finally stopped after my adenoids were removed! I couldn't imagine the pain after having an eardrum burst..... My mum told me I was close to having my left pop when I had a really bad infection, but luckily it didn't. Did you have to have...

I think I will just keep my appointments with my primary care doctor and audiologist and not make an appt for ENT yet. Since I have to get a referral to see any specialist from my primary care doctor, I'll see what she thinks first and go from there. She probably could point in the direction f...

lol ^_^

I can hear pretty well, and it makes me sick and very upset the things other hearing people do and say to d/Deaf and HoH people. Just because people are different doesn't mean you have to treat them that way. And I honestly believe there should be like a class in school about how to "act"...

Should I see an ENT before I see my audiologist for my hearing test or after? or do I even need to see my audiologist if I see an ENT? Do you know what the options are for conductive deafness? I want to be sure I know my options before I see my doctors in a few weeks..... Thank you everyone...

Thank you for the Grand Welcome!!! ^_^

Hi! My name is Rachel and I'm new here. I wanted to get the opinion of everyone here about my possible hearing loss. When I was very young, I always had really bad ear infections. After having somewhat severe hearing loss due to the infections for 5years, I had surgery to get PE tubes...

Hi! :wave: My name is Rachel. I'm 23 and married. My husband is hearing, but has Deaf family members. I, on the other hand, believe I have a mild hearing loss. My husband and I have taken a beginners ASL class a few years ago, and I'm currently doing a self study ASL program using...
