NURSING HOME UPDATE, CON'T

Karen Y. said...

WOW! That is shocking. Did you lose any hearing?

Well, the doctor said that I had lost 10% of my hearing, but after seeing the damage done, he was shocked it was ONLY 10%. What he thought at first would be only a 45 minute surgery turned into a 3 hour surgery. He had to reconstruct the area behind my eardrum. He said he was glad I saw that show and kept pushing my doctor into sending me to an ENT specialist. Had I waited, the damage would have been worse and I might have lost all hearing in my left ear. But now he says I should hear fine with only a slight decrease on the left side.
