Had a 2nd opinion check on my hearing loss today. Similar results. The pattern I have for both ears is called Cookie Bite loss....good hearing on bass and treble ends, with loss making a curve downward in between. A little research looks like it is usually genetic. It is an autosomal dominant gene....which means if I carry it, I have a 50% chance of passing it off to any of my kids. It is sometimes picked up in childhood screening, but most often identified in people in late 30s, and mid 40s. Hearing aid tech says hearing aids should work to give close to 100% correction. Now to come up with the price...Looks to be between $3000 and $5000 with no insurance to help out.
