@cobweb thanks for getting the introductions started in the Hearing Loss group on Connect. I'd also like to invite fellow members to the new group - @dstell @johnnyb7 @ccubed @mtnyankee @conniekay @cynaburst @squaredancer @contentandwell @joechauhan777 @morninglory @trishanna @estrada53 @phillipflippo @upartist @sfskater1958. What is your hearing loss experience?

Cobweb, how did your ear drums get punctured as a child? How long have you been wearing hearing aids?

You ask about hearing aids that work. @dkeefe started a discussion about hearing aids here:
> Hearing aids https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/hearing-aids-1/
It would be great to get more recommendations and people's experiences in that discussion thread.

By the time i was in second grade, lots of pain etc, from infections and colds i guess. Punctured then.Wearing hearing aids for about 10 years. Hearing lost? Trouble listening to tv with aids in.

Dear Colleen: I just recently connected to the hearing loss group. Today I sent a reply to Jamie Olson a Mayo moderator. My questions are about testing and when to see an audiologist and when to see an otologist. Also if Mayo has a recommended clinic in Indianapolis that has both an audiologist and an otologist. I will be looking for a response from Jamie or perhaps from you.
