Hey wait a minute! You always said you didn't need health insurance because
you are a nurse and are your own insurance. Besides, you 'doctor' yourself up
with cannabis oil, Seroquel, and garlic; why would you need insurance?

My daughter had a toothache and went to the dentist. It's going to cost us 3 grand. My dentist bill is $2,500. We're going to have to buy a new range because the old one died. Our plan was to get a newer used car this month but it looks like that's out the window. My daughter as been offered a job at the animal clinic where she's required to put some hours in for school. I'm hoping she takes the job and gets dental insurance. That would be nice.

Damn, that all sounds costly. Hey you know about hearing right?

I bought three of those sonic pest-repllers' that plug right
into the wall and they all have three settings, low, medium
and high..It says not to run them on high if humans or pets are going
to be in the room, so just I had to plug one in to the wall in the
kitchen and run it on high, just to see how nasty it was.

At any rate, I couldn't hear it very much at all, while my
wife was telling me to turn it off quick, it bothered her.

My question is did I stand too close to the stage and listen
to my music too loud when I was a younger guy and roach my
hearing, or perhaps I'm just tone deaf to that particular
frequency?

You should have taught her to brush her teeth. School-aged kids
shouldn't need to have root canals and caps.

As it goes, most people will lose about half of their hearing by the time they're in their 60's. Kids can hear up to 20,000 Hz and above. Someone my age might hear up to 11 kHz. You can get a free signal generator app for your phone and test your limits.
Around 30% of people over 65 will have some hearing loss. Mostly it'll be in the higher frequencies. People with hearing loss will typically have most of the loss in frequencies starting about 2 kHz. People that have some loss due to their occupation, will probably show a steep drop in hearing starting at 1 kHz. Their hearing will be completely gone by 4 kHz. It's the large losses above 1000 Hz that makes speech comprehension difficult.
Oddly enough, people in my generation have better hearing than their parents. That's what the research has shown. I can't say why that is.
I doubt the ultrasonic chasers will work on bugs. OTOH, I'm thinking of an high frequency generator app that keeps cats away from me. I won't hear a thing but my wife would get ****ed off. It's always something.

That's a heck of a good question. Too bad we live so far from Tijuana. They could do implants a lot cheaper. Well, that's what I figure anyway.

My prediction is that in the future, we'll just get a shot to prevent tooth decay.

dsi1 calls Hawaiians under 50 'kids', but since he's probably in his
60s, his children could well be 40 or so, and not exactly school-aged.

I'm going to guess root canal. I had one a few years ago and it cost
over $2000. Everthing costs more in Hawaii.

Well thanks for a really well written response, I do appreciate it. As
far as I can tell I can hear well enough when it comes to conversation
and such, I'm not really concerned about being hard of hearing but the
fact that it was too aggravating for my wife to listen to when I
couldn't hardly notice it bothered me a bit.

Now I recall my dad saying "you're gonna go deaf listening
to that shit you call music that loud"

I do wear hearing protection now around machinery, like
closing the barn door after the horses are running away?

I have a constant ringing in my ear so if you don't, consider yourself lucky. It's a good idea to wear hearing protection when you can. The thing about hearing loss is that it's so gradual that people don't notice it.
The good news is that these days you can buy rechargeable Blu-tooth ear pieces that can help you hear. In the future, they'll be made specifically for hearing losses - they just probably won't be advertised as such. The cost will be under $200.

The last time I had a root canal was several years ago and my portion was $1000.
Fortunately, I have a dental/medical credit card from Care Credit that will allow
me to charge treatments and eye glasses to it. Depending on the amount I can
get 6, 12, or 18 months to pay it off interest free.

I don't have dental insurance so the cost of the root canal and the
crown was on me. I tried the Care Credit route for payment arrangements
and they never got back to me. Oh well. Anyway, I'm only speculating
on the cost of his daughter's dental bill.

I have a constant ringing in my ear so if you don't, consider yourself
lucky. It's a good idea to wear hearing protection when you can. The thing
about hearing loss is that it's so gradual that people don't notice it.
The good news is that these days you can buy rechargeable Blu-tooth ear
pieces that can help you hear. In the future, they'll be made specifically
for hearing losses - they just probably won't be advertised as such. The
cost will be under $200.

D. has hearing aids that just don't work and they cost £4.000.00!

Where do we find these Blu-tooth aids??

They're not hearing aids but ear bud-type headphones that are capable of amplifying ambient sounds. There's currently an explosion on these products so there's a lot of product out there.
I suspect that your husband has a hearing loss in the severe range since he was a military guy. If so, the ear buds might not have enough power for him. Your best bet is to demo a pair. I haven't had a chance to test some out but I can tell that's the direction these things are going.

That would be my guess. Or maybe root canal plus crown.
I'd just say "pull it." If I still missed the tooth after an adjustment
period, an implant would be an option later.

Actually, in real life, I really can hear the ocean (waves breaking)
sometimes early mornings when the waves are large. I live exactly one
mile from the shore.

Yes he was in the military for 22 years. He looked those bud things up
and some are from the company that his current ones came from . A friend
of ours got her hearing aid from the NHS i.e. free and it is fantastic. It
links to an app on her phone and can be adjusted to filter out background
noise or certain frequencies or to focus on people talking on the other side
of the room. Unfortunately they aren't available here on the NHS in Scotland
at present.

I do not have a degenerative brain disorder. LSD and Psilocybin actually promote neuroplasticity and new nerve growth! Thereby inducing their therapeutic effects.

John hasn't actually had a job. He keeps posting about them then
suddenly there were reasons for days off. He blames it on snow, yet he
was driving his Leaf and had to have his car towed. Bitched about that.
I don't believe anything he says.

Fixed it for you, loser.

THIS ISN'T YOUR PERSONAL MESSAGE BOARD, YOU BRAINDEAD ****TARD!

NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR MENTAL DISORDERS, DUMB****!

You're still an unemployable failure and always will be!

You are a waste of air.

Nobody gives a shit about your house.
Nobody gives a shit about your sound system.
Nobody gives a shit about your car.
Nobody gives a shit about your exercise.
Nobody gives a shit about your chronic unemployment.
Nobody gives a shit about your mental illness.
Nobody gives a shit about your feeble attempts at "cooking."
Nobody gives a shit about your pointless pathetic "obsessions."
Nobody gives a shit about your life.

NOBODY GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOU. SHUT THE **** UP AND LEAVE!

Maybe the pervert cannabis nurse with three degrees could
diagnose himself as having a degenerative brain disorder.
I mean, I'm certainly not qualified to do that. How many
degrees do I have. NONE!

Imagine a young person talking to you, and you say, "Hold on a second,"
and pull out your ear trumpet.
"What's that?"
"What do you mean, what's that? It's my hearing aid."
"But hearing aids are those tiny Bluetooth things, like earbuds."
"Yeah, the expensive ones. I'm not wasting money like that. This works
just fine."

He also said he was supposed to start last week. Here were are a week
later and there is some reason he has been given time off before he
ever really started. We have every reason to doubt whatever he says. I
am not going to call him a liar, but I agree that there is could reason
to question is credibility.
