Steps for the Best Outcome
- Write down your medical history and a list of medications, since these can affect your hearing.
- Avoid loud noise exposure 12 hours before a hearing test.
- Reschedule if you have congestion.
- Bring a log of when and where you’ve noticed hearing problems over the last weeks or months.
- List any activities that are becoming difficult for you, at work, school or socially. Be specific, as this could guide your treatment.
Remember, you’re not alone.
HLAA has a network of support that many say is key to living a full life with hearing loss.
