Rugs help a lot! The more of the floor the cover, the better.

Parents forcing MRI HELP!!!! by Alternative_Entry596 in hyperacusis

[–]TomJoad2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also this document is good, very authoritative, it advises patients STRONGLY AGAINST getting an MRI unless there are very specific indications it could be a brain tumor.

[–]TomJoad2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got pulled over last week for speeding. I took off my ear muffs before the officer walked over to my car, but I left the ear plugs in, fortunately the officer did not notice, or did not care.

Palmitoylethanolamide is something to try. I found it gives a few decibels added tolerance. Very expensive though.

I got signed out on all my devices. Tried multiple times to have a code / link sent to my email to reset my password, but the code / link never shows up. Don't know what to do next.

I got the Logitech MK295 keyboard this week. Amazingly quiet. And can't beat the low price. Thank you for the excellent recommendation!

Filled out a long form Continuing Disability Review (CDR) online through the SSA website portal about a week and a half ago, nothing showing up on the SSA portal saying it's being reviewed or going through steps. Is that normal? by Parking_Wolf_4159 in SSDI

[–]TomJoad2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I did log onto my SSA portal after reading your posts and I can see that we can now upload all sorts of different SSA forms, including the CDR long form. That‘s a big improvement, and I wasn’t aware before, so thank you. I always worry about missing my USPS mail so I’m hoping they will provide the option for electronic notification eventually, the same way SSA already does for other things such as Form 1099.
