This is totally ME. I have a hard time understanding somebody if they're not looking at me or if there is a lot of white noise. This has only gotten bad in the past year or so. What part of the suggestions above are supposed to help with that?
What kind of doctor did you see to do this? I asked my regular doctor about this issue, and she wanted me to see the ENT doctor. From the research I've read, it's not my ears, it's my brain. I can hear fine if there isn't overlapping noise.
I do actually listen to music at work with one headphone and keep the other out so I can listen for the phone or if somebody needs me. But I'm listening to the music with my good ear (left, right is bad).
