NP,I don't have any real, medically substantiated info on the subject, yet. So, I'll make up some BS answer.

Amen! Preach on sister!Of course, I also like to "jam" to the stereo while I am driving...that could be part of the problem. (nothing like some good "automobile kareokee" to start the day!)

Rock on! Keep on singing!Amen! Preach on sister!Of course, I also like to "jam" to the stereo while I am driving...that could be part of the problem. (nothing like some good "automobile kareokee" to start the day!)
Last year I spend a couple grand on my car stereo so that it'd be nice and loud. Now I'm thinking it's not loud enough... Though I still think it's funny that I can lose my voice in the hour commute home because of singing along

Hi,I find this thread very interesting, since I am hearing impaired. I started wearing hearing aids about 2 years after I started diving. My hearing loss started prior to diving, however. I'm told it is a nerve loss - for all you doc's out there. So the loss is expected to increase with age - yeah that. From what the doc's are saying it would have nothing to do with the nerve portion of the ear. So when my ears get plugged with water I really don't hear too much. I don't use drops to unplug them very often, because it causes irritation when I put in my hearings aids.
I won't be giving up diving if it could cause further loss.
My buddy's job is to make sure I know when my name is called during roll call. And I have to position myself near the divemaster when giving site instructions.

Hi NP,When someone loses some degree of one sense, they typically enhance the other senses.

Don't get me wrong, I only paid 2200 for my car. The 2k for the stereo was for a cd player/mp3 player/satellite radio head unit, a 12in sub, a good amp and misc cabling. I spend almost an hour each way commuting to work, so it was worth the money to make the time enjoyableA couple of thousand $$$ for a car stereo system? Wow... my entire car isn't worth more than $1K. Of course it sits on the mainland where it gets exercised about once a month. Don't need one here on the island.

Actually, I think I hear as well as anyone else underwater. It could be the frequency or the way sound travels.When someone loses some degree of one sense, they typically enhance the other senses. I bet you and your dive buddy have great eye contact, constantly know each other's location, have well defined hand signals, and maybe use a tank banger, duck, rattle, or some other devices to signal. Good for you to keep doing what you enjoy, and finding ways to overcome some obstacles.
