..I SAID ANY HEARING SPECIALISTS IN THE HOUSE... ๐Ÿ˜€

Just been given this graph of my hearing from occupational health. They don't/can't eleborate on the results, apart from I can now see my right ear is red and my left hear is blue.

That says to me you haven't been tested in nearly 8 years.

Is one ear bigger than the other?

I'm not an audiologist/ENT doctor, but it looks like the right ear is essentially normal and you have some mild high frequency hearing loss in the left ear.

You have high moderate frequency loss (nerve), if they had done a bone conduction test as well...
Can affect the way you hear speech. I'm not an expert, just an ex ENT nurse and have conduction hearing loss with a bit of high freqency drop off.

As someone now waiting to get a hearing aid for my left ear having seen an ENT consultant, had audiology do tests and also a pre-cautionary MRI, I'd say you could possibly benefit from a hearing aid in your left ear. Do you have trouble hearing people in noisy environments? I do and my graph was very similar to yours. Does it affect your job? If yes, then you could well do with a hearing aid.

Your left ear improved slightly* in the more 'recent' test.

Are you left handed and spend a lot of time on the phone? Or have just one earphone in from iPod etc.? What do you do as a job?

*Although, I don't know what the y axis units are

I interpret those graphs as the results of your previous tests 8 and 11 years ago. Blue line 2006, red line 2003. Doesn't give any clue as to your current hearing.

Clearly you're not a Trekkie, or else you'd also have a final front ear.
