@eclectic I have not talked to them at all, it is not really much of a concern for me at all. With my hearing aids off, my right ear is still higher pitched. It is more noticeable with hearing aids on due to the amplification of sound to normal.

As for music, it does not really affect me at all since I am used to it. I listen to it regardless, but I had to get used to hearing aids since everything used to be dull sounding.

@eclectic I suppose that there is Tinnitus as well, but I lived with it my entire life and it has never bothered me. It just feels normal to me.
