Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 has never passed the hearing screens, wait, she did once, after 5 years, but this year, again she failed, did not respond to any noise in the booth and it was killing my ears. SO, we saw the ENT, he wants to repeat the ABR and put tubes back in. We're concerned that she has hearing loss now. The first ABR, probably 3 years ago, showed she could hear as low as leaves rustling, but not sure now. Does hearing loss come up gradually, all of a sudden, how is it with out kids. If she needed hearing aids, oh, Lord help me. She cannot even have the EEG done without arm immobilizers and even brushing her hair is a battle, she pulls it out. But, just curious on others experiences. Thanks, 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 My son cannot hear without tubes....never passes a screen without them in. The ASD does make the testing harder, though.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I am just back today from 's second ear tube insertion. He has failed tests but we aren't sure, either. He has lots of fluid, so we will retest in about a month.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Just an idea on the hairbrush situation. Jake hates getting his hair brushed with a spiky type brush, like most brushes on the market right now. We bought an old fashioned mens brush with the hairy bristles and he has no problem with it. He even does it himself sometimes. Holly hearing has never passed the hearing screens, wait, she did once, after 5 years, but this year, again she failed, did not respond to any noise in the booth and it was killing my ears.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Elie hates brushing his hair, but doesn't mind if I do it. He can't stand the feel of his hand and the brush on his head. I think the vibration in the hand is too much . Same issue with a razor - electric. I can do it, but he hates to try. > Just an idea on the hairbrush situation.
