Question about hearing for LT / Apraxia

[Guest guest]

Hi,

We tried doing a hearing test with my daughter (brief synopsis of profile in my

signature below) but the sedation was mild and she kept waking up. The test had

to be stopped mid-way. The doctor was only able to tell us that her hearing is

absolutely fine (it took them hardly 5 mins to confirm that) but they could not

say anything about whether or not the input received by the ear is properly

being processed and received by the brain. Apparently, the test for this takes

closer to 45 mins and since she kept waking up, they could not complete this

test.

Now, my question is given the fact that her hearing is fine and her present

status of verbalization (mentioned below), do we need to really go through the

tortue of putting her through all that again? I mean the sedation and

everything. What are the chances of her brain not receiving / processing the

signals from the ears correctly?

I guess the only reason I am even considering a hearing test again is that she

misarticulates.

Thanks,

Nikunj
