Follow-up Ear Appt

On October 22nd, 2012 - We went to Hinsdale Hospital for our follow-up hearing test.  We got to see how they administered the hearing test for the first time.  They do two tests when checking hearing in infants.  The first one is called Otoacoustic Emission which measures the inner ear and the second is called Auditory brainstem response (ABR) which test the neurological function of the ear.  We were told not to worry as most infants will pass this test.  When we went Emerson did not pass this test.  The Otoacoustic Emission test was coming back that there was fluid in the ear.  We were told that we needed to follow-up again a month from now.  Again we were told not to worry as a majority of babies pass the month test.
