Re: Tawnya re Ricky's ABR 1/2 test

December 30, 2004

Hi Tawnya,

I suppose that is true, the longer the test the less

the hearing loss so in essence that is better, LOL....

Unfortunalty the test for Ricky was inconclusive due

to his waking up and because of the darn fluid, so I

have to wait another month and a half probably 2

months more before we can do more testing and likely

not a ABR but another OAE.

Not sure what the next step is other than that, to see

the ENT again and then re-test. So basically I am not

really farther ahead other than it appears that in at

least one ear the hearing loss is a mild one. I have

no clue about the other ear though.

This is very frustrating for me!!

I was really nervous, but relieved to know that the

ENT and Audi felt that

Ians test would be definate. Since he was sedated it

went really well.

They got all the info they needed. They said that

since he has mild/mod

that it took longer. I guess that severe kids are

easier to test because

they don't react.

They also used the results from Ian's test to set his

Hearing Aids.

So what is your next step?
