I saw this before on the RNID page, it's a great idea, I much prefer the titles OFF the screeen anyway because they tend to block my viewing, and appear...
Yes I agree with M. Would be great if we could get TV's where the subs would be off the actual pix. On some programmes you hardly see the persons face as it...
Oh yes, I agree, I hate it when the subtitles are covering the face (impossible to lipread) or important information or pictures (sometimes the name of a...

Yes, but with modern technology, in the same way that you can choose to have subtitles or not, they may be able to come up with technology that will allow the...
Hi Elaine, I get more condensation too with the full shell pink moulds. I also find my ears are a lot more wet when I take them off. I guess it's because they...
Hi Saff, Thanks for your reply.Yes I find my ears feel a bit more soggy when I take them off and I have had a couple of yukky days(I mean really yukky!) when I...

I literally did it all in one day there and back but didn't want to make any plans as it was my first appointment there so didn't know how long it would last...
I listened to the programme on the web. I don't think it was really aimed at deaf people, but rather at educating hearing people about hearing loss and at...
That's interesting about the dizziness and a possible link with the overall picture, according to your rheumatologist. I sometimes wonder if Meniere's is...
Hi Angela, Yes, I have that problem too. One GP told me that it was eczema caused by wearing the moulds all the time. I'm not sure if he meant it was an...
Angela, I forgot to say... good luck with the waiting list! I hope it won't be as long as it looks (depends on many patients they fit in a week). All the best,...
