My hearing has gotten progressively worse.Yes, I do wear hearing aids. Most people with PD have soft voices.I am definitely a social person abd isolating myself. would be tough. THis last week a new audilogist--in the same office where I had been going said I was probably a cabdidate for a cochlear implant.Because of my PD and having some dyskinesia might disqualify me. I don't know anyone who has had one Any info would be most appreciated. Also any help in hearing better would be great.

Before, holding a conversation with him was hard work, afterwards it was as though he was just a little hard-of-hearing, & I know he resumed his hobby of playing the piano accordion. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
