I am a male, 55 years. i had a hearing test last year.
The chart / diagram shows that I have;

1 KHz — 4KHz 20 Decibles hearing loss
4 KHz — 8 KHz 60 — 90 Decibles

I remeber when I was 30 and my uncle was 70 that he had much better hearing than I did?

I have serve to profound hearing loss. However, it hasn’t been much of a bother. I’m really good at communication, hearing others in loud background, and I read lips very well. Is there a chance I can become a police officer? Please tell me honestly, I’ll accept the truth no matter how difficult it is.

Could Exploding head syndrome and hearing loss be connected?

Miss Sunshine asked:


If someone has been hearing impaired since about 5, and has had EHS for as long as they can remember is it possible that hearing can be corrected by correcting the Eustachian tube (if needed) or otherwise? Or if hearing was damaged by EHS? Or any theory regarding hearing loss and EHS? Thanks!

I get ear, nose and throat infections once every 3 months. Is this something that could lead to something serious in the long run and could this lead to hearing loss?
