Sensorineural hearing loss
10 years ago
Yep bros today I may be a bit deaf..
I have always had crappy hearing but it's become more prominent as I have gotten older. I struggle to hear whispers, low talking..and I can barely hear conversations when we're in a place with background noise (cars, cafes, etc) even if the person is right beside me..
So today I went to my GP and explained this, did a test and found that I could not hear any of the middle frequency noise he played back to me.
(Which is bizarre since usual cases of hearing loss are either low frequency loss OR high frequency loss?)
When I was a baby I had Meningitis, and he's guessed that's what caused it, and in that case the type of hearing loss is called sensorineural hearing loss, and is irreversable.
I have to go to a specialist sometime next week to get a more in-depth analysis, and I might have to get a hearing aid :^( I dont mind tbh but it'll be weird to get used to hh
In other news I'm going to try and complete a bunch of potato chibis tonight!
I'll keep ya's updated!

Be careful with some hearing aides. Make sure you know everything okay o.o! I have heard some horror stories.
