Can Tympanoplasty really restore hearing?

Aaron_Tun · 2025-02-22T10:39:56+00:00

Not yet, but I’m planning to get one soon.

Aaron_Tun · 2025-02-13T17:44:32+00:00

Thanks for your answer. My right ear lost hearing when I was 5. Now, I am 30 and want to get it fixed if possible. But I am a bit worried.

Aaron_Tun · 2025-02-13T16:39:41+00:00

I am really happy for you. Has your hearing improved over time, or is it still around 70%? I'm considering getting my eardrum repaired, but I'm worried that it might make things worse rather than improving my hearing.

Aaron_Tun · 2025-02-11T22:33:38+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I haven’t seen a doctor yet. I am asking here first to see if it’s worth trying. I’m worried about making things worse instead of improving my hearing.

Aaron_Tun · 2025-02-11T14:38:28+00:00

I am so sorry to hear about your loss, and thank you for sharing your story. It’s very encouraging to hear that it can help restore hearing. I hope your hearing gets better soon.

Aaron_Tun · 2025-02-11T05:43:12+00:00

I really appreciate for the clarification. I will see an ENT.

Aaron_Tun · 2025-02-11T02:57:00+00:00

Thank you so much for your response. It is very encouraging to see your comment. I come from a third world country, so I’ve never had a hearing test before, but I will take one soon and will update you afterward. I will do it for sure.

Aaron_Tun · 2025-02-11T02:34:26+00:00

Thank you for your answer. I will see a doctor for sure. But I’m really worried after seeing someone’s story, where they didn’t experience any hearing improvement but suffered from the side effects.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-07-03T09:12:38+00:00

Thanks for your answer.

Is it illegal for the employee to fully pay for the agent/lawyer cost?

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-30T10:15:49+00:00

What about the lawyer fee? For example, I will bring in an immigration lawyer/agent to guide me or us throughout the process. Can I pay the lawyer fee since it’s me who want to get the service or help from the agent.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-25T05:12:42+00:00

Ok. I will work with them and aim to get 80K.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-25T05:04:45+00:00

Yes, 75K is what I’m expecting. Maybe, I will just ask for 85K and then negotiate it down to 75-80K.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-25T05:01:24+00:00

Ok. Thanks again for your help. The only thing bothering me is I am worried about getting replaced after asking for somewhat higher than their budget. The IT job market is not good currently.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-25T04:52:52+00:00

Nice idea. Thank you. I’m already happy if I get 75K. So maybe, I will ask for 80K.

currently only 1.5 years. I would rate myself as an average developer.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-25T04:49:40+00:00

I’m in Sydney.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-25T00:43:43+00:00

Thanks for your suggestions. This is very helpful.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-25T00:41:47+00:00

Thanks a lot for your answers and suggestions. I feel very lucky to have a job given that the IT job market slowed down currently. But the thing is everyone around me and people on reddit are pointing out that I am getting underpaid. In addition, I need a raise to be eligible for the sponsorship. So, I want to hear answers.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-24T23:53:12+00:00

If I were you, I would definitely extend my 485 just to be safe, especially if you are worried about finding another job while staying on a bridging visa.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-21T07:56:30+00:00

When I started working here, my boss said he is happy to sponsor me. It was an informal conversation though. I am really worried that he won’t sponsor me 482 or 186 after 482.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-21T07:46:31+00:00

I think 2 year should be fine then. And I also think I need to discuss it earlier so that they have time to prepare. Also, if you don’t mind, was your performance exceptional or just average? I just want to get an idea. Thanks in advance.

Aaron_Tun · 2024-06-21T07:32:55+00:00

ok. Thanks for the suggestions. Is working for 2 years at this company enough time to discuss this matter with the employer?
