Hi, everyone.
Tom has had tinnitis for a long time now, and he says it is more pronounced since the chemo. He, too, has lost the high-end pitch recognition...it was kind of funny when he was having his hearing test and I sat with him. I could hear all those high notes, and had to keep myself from signaling for him! smile I've noticed that I have to repeat EVERYTHING now unless I am looking directly at him. I suppose a hearing aid will be in his near future.
