From Boston born there but now live in Florida. My story: A few
years back I suffered from 3 brain viruses that gave me
encephalitis. This caused my brain to swell leaving me hearing
impaired. This also contributed to damage to my equilibrium. Which
is your inner ear. I need to use a cane for walking. I can only
hear 33%. I consider myself hard of hearing. That is the only thing
it caused. Everything else works! I use a cane for balance . I
currently received new CIC hearing aids (Completely-in-the-canel)
hearing aids. I am a good friendly guy. It is hard for me to make
new friends. But I like meeting people.
