Ok, I have 3 kids who all have this cold. They decide to share with me. For the first week it is just a cold. On Thursday, my ears start hurting. I go to...
Dodie, Of course, I'm not sure what's going on either with your ears, but I can sure understand how worried you must be. I would guess that maybe you have got...
Dodie- I think Alea's advice sounds good; she's had a lot of experience with ear infections. I just had two things to add. One is that if your stapes...
Thanks Andrea and Alea, My left ear is the one I am concerned about and it is my un-operated ear. I don't have a prosthesis in that ear. My right ear is my...
Wow, Dodie - it sounds so frustrating and frightening, what you are going through. I think the advice to call the doctor, and tell them you need a follow-up...
Laura, I did call the doctor back today. She gave me samples of a different antibiotic, Zyrtec, and Nasonex. They seemed to be more concerned this time when...
Dodie, I only have my positive thoughts to add. I hope that you are feeling better soon. I'm sorry that you were berated by the other group. Sometimes...
Dodie, That sounds like progress! I'm glad you didn't have to go back in, and maybe the new medications will help within a couple of days. It sounds like...
I hope she will take me up on it. Karen is an art teacher who has been recently diagnosed with Meniere's. She has had the sudden vertigo attacks and the...
Well, I am taking you up on the invitaion. Thank you, Tina! I've never been part of an on-line group before, so I feel a little funny about this. I've known...
Karen, Welcome to the group. I am Dodie and I have bilateral Otosclerosis. I have a profound loss in my right ear and a severe loss in my left. Although I...
Welcome, Karen-- I'm glad you decided to join us! I am a bit concerned that they are pumping you up with steroids for Meniere's. That seems rather scary. ...
Look at what happens when I go away for a while! Welcome to the group, Karen! I am a former teacher of students who are deaf-blind, now working for my ...
Dawn, give me her email address and I will send her an official invitation. As for the sensitivity to loud sounds (hyperacusis), I believe that many people...
Hey Tina, I'll email her and get back to you. She's an incredible person. I hope that she decides to accept an invite. :) Takes two to tango, and if one...
Very exciting news. We met with the surgeon yesterday and he says that Brian's cochlea is perfect. Nothing wrong there so we can go ahead and have the...
That is great news! This means that as he learns language, he will have hearing to help him. Do make sure, though, to have him learn sign and to learn it as a...
Hi Laura, I am glad that all is going well medically with Brian. It seems like you have a great surgeon who seems to want you to understand the process and ...
Great news! As a 'recent' implantee myself, I'd just like to mention a few things. For one, don't expect miracles, okay, granted, he's a child and he'll...
"Why Do Agencies That Serve the Hard of Hearing Use Mumbled Automated Telephone Menus?" http://deafnotdumb.homestead.com/mumblemenu.html Dawn, you get a brief...
Tina, I have a CapTel phone. You can speak to the person on the other end and see what they say in a caption screen. The service is free and I got the phone...
Tina, I read and loved both articles! So glad that you were able to find the services -- even if it was a pain in the... ummm... ear! Do you mind if I share...
By all means, do. Once I post it's public, after all! It is a very busy week for me, but I will try to get a phone application in next week. I need to go to...
Since Monday is a holiday, I have to wait until Tuesday to go to the hearing clinic to get the audiologist's signature, and that means calling her on the phone...
You know what, Tina, despite our chosen professions, some just don't get it. As I said, I am a member of a Cochlear Implant Workgroup and I have, twice, had...
Happy Birthday, Linda! A bit belated, but hope you had a good one. My sisster Andrea's here visiting with me, so we've both been neglecting our email as of...
Joining in the fun and doing the *happy birthday Linda dance* I hope it was great! Dawn Takes two to tango, and if one doesn't want to dance no sense whirling...
