    "Silent Scream" - episode about Gally murders

    I liked it. I found the way it was covered really fascinating and I liked that they gave voices to everyone affected. A lot of shows you only see one side of it

    Borax in my ears and other fun with the ENT

    Wow!! I would be VERY uncomfortable with that!! Borax might be ok in your ears but he should have TOLD you what he was doing so you could say no. You have a right to say NO to anything a doctor does to you. The ENT I saw recently was REALLY rough with my ears but he's retiring in December and...

    What does the Shutdown means to you?

    It means absolutely nothing to me. I'm not affected. If the Entire Society collapses we'll live on a hippy commune and be self sufficient.

    Job interviews

During my interview I told them that I was HOH and picking up my hearing aids next week? Turns out...

    Annoying ignorant hearing people stories

    My daughter's teacher and I are in a similar Call vs Email struggle. We'll be emailing and she will tell me 'OH JUST CALL ME!' but after me asking 'What?' and 'Can you repeat that?' she'll go 'I'll email you' :roll::roll:

    Annoying ignorant hearing people stories

    It bothers me when I post something on craigslist and leave my phone #but say ONLY TEXT OR EMAIL I'm HOH and will NOT answer' Sometimes people call and when I don't answer the phone they leave a message. I can't HEAR the message well enough to get numbers right so I don't return the call. I've...

    Odd Hearing Change in 3 years plus new hearing aids

    Yeah I'm pretty sure they are accurate. It used to be harder to hear out the right side and then that changed. The buzzing seems to be all in the left now. My buzzing isn't a buzzing or ringing but it's like a tone from the audiologists tht got stuck on and you hear it ALL the time. It's maddening

    Odd Hearing Change in 3 years plus new hearing aids

    That is a GOOD possibility! I know the current audiologist tried to talk to the old one and couldn't actually get her on the phone. They just communicated entirely with fax. I mean I would HOPE she wouldn't make a mistake like that but doctors are NOT infallible

    Odd Hearing Change in 3 years plus new hearing aids

    I have another chronically ill friend who had the same thing happen with her ears over the course of two years. She's seeing a Neuro-otologist tomorrow and was going to question him about it. My audiologist said it was likely related to my genetic connective tissue disease and the tinnitus...

    Odd Hearing Change in 3 years plus new hearing aids

    This is my audiogram from 2010 This is my audiogram from last week I'm not sure if you can tell from the photos but my ears pretty much switched places exactly. Now I suffer from a chronic illness and also suffer from tinnitus so maybe that's what caused the difference? My left ear...
