Had my hearing tested today...

Karen,

THAT'S IT!!! I couldn't think of the name. This constant tinitis is driving me NUTS!! I have a call into him to see if he wants me to get an MRI (again) so we can measure it in 6 months.

I swear, by the time I'm 70 I'll be blind and DEAF!!!

Well, if you look at my prescription, and everything, many folks would tell you I am already half-blind, and am certainly half deaf!

Hey Babes you might be blind and deaf by 70 but not DUMB lol, seriously my dear friend i am sorry to hear of your latest health issues, and i hope there is nothing too major going on and they can help you,just wanted you to know you are very much in my thoughts, take care dearest Donna.

And as you know, as we've met in person, being deaf in one side is not really a big deal, and can be helpful at times when you want to "turn a deaf ear" to someone - you can actually do it! And, to my way of thinking, I'd much rather be completely deaf on one side than dealing with tintinitis for sure! And, as you will likely ALWAYS have animals at home, you can count on them to turn their heads or swivel their ears toward any strange noise, so you'll know where it is coming from. Me, right now I have to ask Paul. (Who is remarkably patient with it, thankfully!)
