@nurseheadakes My daughter also inherited migraines from me. When she has one she sometimes call, talking can actually be soothing at times. I always so bad because I know they are in the genes I gave her, and my mother gave to me.
Her hearing loss and mine are opposite though. My hearing was phenomenal when I was young, the loss started in my late 50s. I am wondering now, after reading some of these posts, if ibuprofen could have contributed to it. I had a doctor back then that had me on nine ibuprofen a day.
As I mentioned, I recognized that she had a hearing loss before her doctor did since she would peer at me and say "WHAT?". Her pediatrician said her mind was probably operating on a different level because she was very intelligent and had an active brain, but a mother knows. Fortunately, when she did get diagnosed at age 4 the speech and language tests came back well over age level -- I guess I must have been talking pretty loudly.
