Hearing Loss /Casa.

Travel sickness drugs Cinnarizine ( Brand name: Stugeron ), and dimenhydrinate (Dramamine®), can be used to reduce tinnitus.

​​​​​​​Are you talking long term treatment? Or just come medical time?

[Checkboard]

I'm not a doctor, and don't suffer from tinnitis - but as I understand it, the drugs target nerves about the ear (which is why they reduce travel sickness), and provide some temporary relief for tinnitis sufferers.

Avmed will immediately suspect méničre’s disease ( affects balance) and will at least ground you until that is ruled out. Expect to pay many thousands for pointless testing.

Why not just turn up the volume on your headset?

[cLeArIcE]

I wouldn't mention anything. You either pass the test or you don't... And guess what, if you don't pass, just go to an audiologist do a speech recognition test. Highly likely that you won't have any trouble with that and move on. Or you can let AVMED assume that you are a danger to everyone and that your inner ear anatomy is seconds away from forcibly exiting from your asshole and subject yourself to thousands of $ of tests for no reason.
Your choice. I don't usually buy into all this conspiracy stuff and that them "govements" are out to get you but... AVMED is 100% out to get you. Give the bastards nothing.

Noise Cancelling Headset

I use one when flying and can change the volume on each side independently.

Why cant I use this when my hesring is tested?

Years ago, I'm sure there was a deaf pilot who owned a 210, and he flew everywhere - himself.

Let me guess. Everyone told him he couldn’t do it but he couldn’t listen?

As I recall, at AN we had a 767 captain who lost his right hearing due cancer. Eventually came back to the line with a trumpet hearing aid device which had the trumpet near his right ear and fed back over to his left ear.

OP.
Wth total hearing loss in the left ear, I always had a PPL. An ATO flight said, using headsets..never a problem. You should do the CpL exams, which I did. Denied due ‘lack of experience’…only a couple of 100 at the time. !?? Que.

Only hiccup came when I wasted time and money with that stupid CAsA brain fart …the commercial drivers licence..fail
cl2 with Dame…pass.
Apart from not being able to source a noise..no 2 ear DF…the ‘leans ‘ come easy.
With just partial you should be OK…but I am well past dealing with the modern (sic) Avmad. Thankfully.
