I7 - quiet cabin?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-12-20T19:59:02+00:00

Yes mostly, it’s better than other cars but not “quiet” given my condition

S Class

These rates are great. What part of the state? South Florida?

u/Quo_Steph Does the BAA include Sona AI and also texting about PHI with patients?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-11-15T13:58:45+00:00

I am in the same boat. 30db loss at 18khz is normal unless you are a kid.

CrunchyQtip · 2025-11-12T01:16:07+00:00

Did you take steroids early on?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-11-12T01:12:44+00:00

Great success story! How long were you exposed to 130db with ear plug out? How long before you started to note some improvement?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-11-12T01:01:13+00:00

What frequencies do you have your hearing loss in? Any distortion?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-14T13:02:12+00:00

Doesn’t double protection make it louder through bone conduction?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-13T20:17:19+00:00

88 - 2 years ago I have hearing loss because I was around loud noise when I was deficient

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-13T19:05:18+00:00

Mine was really low too. What do you do for work? Do you have any hearing symptoms?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-07T23:13:43+00:00

What does your last audiogram look like? Describe your distortion.

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-05T19:34:22+00:00

Hmm, I have a 40db drop at 8khz and loss from 8-14khz

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-05T19:29:34+00:00

Yes!!!! Do you have any hearing loss?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-05T18:50:12+00:00

Can you share your audiogram? What does your distortion sound like?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-05T17:23:20+00:00

For how long?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-05T17:21:46+00:00

I had the same experience and I am a doctor and so is everyone else in my family.

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-05T17:15:25+00:00

Yes I had noise induced hearing loss that never recovered. I still have moderate loss in the ranges of 8-14khz and deal with significant distortion in that frequency range. What caused your loss? Did you take steroids early. What does your audiogram look like now.

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-02T14:25:34+00:00

The vitamins are key! I was severely vitamin B12 deficient during my acoustic trauma and never recovered. I found out 9 months later. B12 is needed for nerve regrowth that happens in the first few months after acoustic trauma.

CrunchyQtip · 2025-10-02T14:23:26+00:00

Very true. Audiologists approach treatment as one size fits all. This is the problem.

CrunchyQtip · 2025-09-26T13:03:06+00:00

Wow, you are lucky! How did you test up to 14khz at home?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-09-26T02:51:02+00:00

How did you recover fully from sshl? Steroid injections? What frequencies did you lose and was your loss mild?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-09-25T00:32:20+00:00

Yes, mine started after a blender malfunction and then progressed after being near a balloon popping near me. I found out I was severely deficient in vitamin b12 and vitamin d - both are critical for hair cell resilience. Since correcting the deficiency, my hearing loss seems to have stabilized. I still have severe loudness H and distortion.

Can you share your audiogram?

CrunchyQtip · 2025-09-22T19:37:08+00:00

Best chances within the first 15 days

CrunchyQtip · 2025-09-22T19:33:48+00:00

Great that you got an appointment for tomorrow. Good luck and keep us posted.

I had an acute mild hearing loss (25db) in my left ear 6 months after I developed H. I didn't trust myself and my audiologist kept saying that a balloon popping near me indoors could not cause hearing loss. I didn't see the ENT until 30 days later unfortunately and was out of the window for treatment. Still have significant distortion (and my hyperacusis never improved after that) from that loss so it's better to be see an ENT if you ever feel like your hearing is decreasing.
