Message: <blockquote data-quote="Shadowrider" data-source="post: 4244931" data-attributes="member: 3099"><p>How much hearing loss do you have? Has your doctor mentioned cochlear implants? The one doc that I went to said I need one in my left ear. Speech recognition was down into the high 50% range on that side. I need to go see someone else as he was only interested in selling hearing aids and implants, so I've blown it off since then. Once in a blue moon my ears will "clear" for a second of two and it's straight up strange how loud everything is, so I'm really skeptical of his diagnosis. I've wondered if when they cut the cochlea during surgery if the tinnitus stops too. Rush Limbaugh had them and he said many times that when he turned them off at night it was profound silence. He said it was actually helpful at times being able to do that.</p></blockquote><p></p>
