Defining Sound



Fail. I'm still not familiar with sounds..

4th Aided Hearing Test



Failed. Because I did the test after my maping.. I usually do it before my mapping, coz my brain isn't that stimulated yet right after adjusting the CI..

I passed the test but I failed the exam

I had my 5th Aided Hearing Test, Hearing exam (definition of sounds) & Mapping last Friday, April 17.. My aided hearing test rating went higher.. The volume of the sound was lower this time, but I could still hear it.. I was even kinda hesitant to raise my hand coz I'm not sure if it's starting already coz the sound was so soft yet I can hear it..

So I can really hear now..

But..

I'm still not familiar with the sounds.. Yes I can hear it, but I don't know what I'm hearing.. And so I failed my definition of sounds exam.. I could hear every sound that's being played though.. But it isn't enough.. anyway, that was just my 1st try.. Hopefully I'll get it on the 2nd on May 11.. My brain is continuously adapting to the environment.. Patience..

Here's my 5th Aided Hearing Test & My Definition of Sound Exam plus here's my 4th Aided Hearing Test w/c i forgot to post last February....

Btw, Because I'm already hearing now.. I think my balance has improved a little.. I think. Because I could now be left standing ALONE without holding on anything or anyone & I could just stand for minutes.. Basta I don't feel like falling.. I think my vertigo decreased. I'm not sure.. I haven't been back on my therapies because Phil. Orthopedic Center is still under renovation.. I'll be back in May.. And they assess me & my balance..

Hearing test. Hearing exam.

I haven't been updating this blog.. I'm so lazy! but I promise to update this tomorrow after my aided hearing test, mapping & hearing test, as in exam! Yes there is such thing as hearing exam.. Haha. It's a definition test, but I'll be defining what sound I'll hear.. If it's talking sound, dog barking, bell ringing, etc.

I'll ask my companions tomorrow to take a video of me while I'm doing the exam..

Wish me luck! :)
