Not So Friendly Neighbor
“Had a patient, a young man in his mid-twenties, who is already odd, come in for a hearing test. The primary problem is that his music is causing noise complaints. Oh.There are no physical problems with his ears, so I take a hearing test and find that he essentially has a severe hearing loss.
Strange because the area is essentially sign language territory.I ask him as I approach from behind what his intentions are for the evening, and he gives me a suitable response. Undoubtedly what is referred to as a “non-organic hearing loss.” He was attempting to obtain the outcomes he desired in order to defend his lack of neighborly grace.”
