Guest guest Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Hi, I have a quick question. My daughter who has moderate hearing loss had a hearing test yesterday. 6 month ago she had a drop in hearing 20db in left ear and 10db in right ear. So we are closely monitoring her ever 3 months. When this drop occurred they did not reprogram her hearing aids because they said she is receiving good reception at those levels? But at yesterdays test she only had a 5 db difference in each ear (which could be tester or teste). They want to reprogram some tones. My question or concern or maybe my lack of experience. How do they determine when to program the aids and wouldn't too much volume damage more hearing? I am scheduled to go in June because not to many places know how to program digital hearing aid or do not have the program to do this. That's another concern, a lot of places do not know how to program the aids and I am afraid my daughter can be there practice person and hurt my daughter hearing in the long run. She is 9 yrs old and it is still hard for her to distinguish what is good in sounds and she totally relies on the audiologist and me. Sorry so long... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
