Hello looking for some advice please. My partner who has cerebellar ataxia, diagnosed 17 years ago, has started to show some signs of hearing loss….or has she? Or is this something to do with the sort of cognitive delay between hearing words and being able to process them due to the Ataxia? More importantly how can we check? The regular audiology places have said go to GP and get referral but to whom? Presumably the regular type of hearing test won’t be suitable?
For the last 17 years she has been a patient of the wonderful Marios Hadjivassiliou but as we have moved house she is now waiting for an appointment at the Walton Centre in Liverpool.
Communication has become more tricky over the years and am determined to try and keep this going better for longer so any help and advice would be appreciated, thanks 😊
