See if you experience any of the common symptoms of hearing loss?
Do you:
- Ask others to repeat themselves?
- Have trouble understanding conversation in groups or noisy places?
- Have trouble hearing on the phone?
- Listen to the television or radio at a volume that others find too loud?
- Feel tired at the end of the day from straining to hear?
- Feel some people mumble?
- Guess at what people are saying, or guess wrong on occasions?
- Avoid social situations because you can’t hear when it’s noisy?
- Struggle to hear others that are not facing you?
- You hear ringing or buzzing in your ears? This may be tinnitus.
