Nope, no luck. That happens.

Hearing aides adjusted and hearing tested. The left one is still going but the right is holding its own. Just a little bit more dip in my right hearing. Though the lady said that wax build up in the right might be the cause of some of that.

The buffet at the Hard Rock casino is awesome.
My buddy said he gets them all the time and we'll be going again.

Sounds tasty. Casino food is usually pretty good, I've heard.

My hearing was going before dx, but since chemo it's gotten worse.
I've lost a lot of the higher frequencies, so I miss a lot of the "frictives" - f, s, k, p, b, t... it frustrates us all.
Hubby has a hearing aid for one ear bc he's almost deaf there, bc of Meniere's. But it seems HIS hearing is getting worse, too! We have to practically shout at him and speak slowly and distinctly. Yanno, like ppl have to do with me.
But here in the States they're SO expensive.
$2000+!

The lady that did my testing yesterday said it is normal to loose hearing for higher frequencies as we get older.
I noticed my hearing going a year or so after I turned 50 as I was playing mah jong and not hearing a lot of what the other people around me were saying. That's why I went to get my hearing checked and that hearing company discovered my hearing was going in my left ear.
My mum had a hearing aide for one ear but she would never use it, so I was always shouting at her too. Very annoying and tiring.
