It’s none of my business what people say and think of me. I am what I am and do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. It makes life so much easier.
North or south of Chonsin? East towards the pier or west towards the railway track?

I found a good ear doctor, in a small shop house unit, almost directly opposite Hua Hin Hospital, (U turn in front of the hospital) But she is only open after 5pm. Sorry I don't have a phone number, but its easy to find.
Know it best from Naebkehart and been there before
Cheers

Just come back from the ENT clinic prviously mentioned which is in Hua Hin 55/1 having had a successful visit.
What defines a successful visit? Could you elaborate please? Does a "successful visit" mean:
You're still alive...
You're well...
You saw a doctor who spoke English, got medicine and cost was reasonable...
etc. ???
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?
Well it is now almost September and I am still alive and still hearing well. In my book successful visit means arriving with a problem and leaving with it solved all for 300 baht and visit conducted in English.
I have a perfect eyes but some time i feel weakness in my eyes and that time i don't like to do any type of work. i am continually work on pc.... Can you give me a suggestion that i can feel relax....

Switch the pc off and go for a walk. If you are staring at a screen for long periods you are going to get eyestrain

I cannot help you with a hearing test.
I can give some advice on what to buy after the test though. My late mother was deaf and my husband has been deaf since his late twenties. Really speaking you get what you pay for with aids. My husband has a tiny one which is not visible when in the ear, Digital, but the sound is amazing. It did cost quite a bit some years ago about £3000. The problem with cheap aids is that if you are in a noisy place, say a pub, supermarket etc it will pick up all the surrounding sounds and make life unbearable. The one he has cuts out all the background sound, so you just can hear the person you are talking to. For years he was told he was 100% deaf in his other ear, but found out by chance on a routine Audiologist visit that he did have a little hearing there. With the aid of another aid in this really bad ear his hearing is quite good. They have improved enormously since the 70's so with the right aid you can enjoy life to the full again, so to speak! We also have headphones (remote) for the TV ...this means that if you are watching the TV with someone with normal hearing the TV will not deafen them, so harmony reigns
If you cannot find someone local, maybe try Bangkok. Boots also have a hearing centre, but weather they have one in the Thailand branches I do not know. What ever you do, do not go for those £99 aids. They sound maybe ok in the store, but horrendous when in crowded area. In the UK my husband goes to Hidden Hearing.
Try the ear nose and throat specialist. Petchakasam road opposite the Hua Hin Hospital. Young female doctor with all the latest equipment. Open evenings I think 6-9pm.
