Been on the forum for a while and decided to join. There is a wealth of knowledge here.
I will be getting my first hearing aids next week. I was diagnosed with otosclerosis around 30 years ago and had a Robinson Bucket installed in my right ear 25 years ago. I now have some degree of loss due to age but it is primarily from the disease. There is a long history of this in my family.
Here are the test numbers:
Freq Left Right
250 -20 -10
500 -30 -5
1000 -35 -5
2000 -70 -30
3000 -105 -65
4000 -110 -70
8000 -115 -70
This has been such a slow progression that I didn’t realize that I was not hearing the high freqs.
I would like to hear from anyone who has had a stapendectomy and now using hearing aids as well. Just wondering what to expect.
Thanks
