This step actually comes before your visit to the audiologist. It is important to rule out any medical problems that could be causing a hearing loss. Hearing loss can be caused by impacted wax that is jammed against the eardrum. Perhaps your problem could be related to some medication that you are taking.
Fungal infections can also cause a problem. They don't seem to bother me but when I get them my hearing declines and I know how to treat for them (which is really easy and doesn't require a trip to a physician if you know how to handle the situation).
Also, be aware that your audiologist has a camera that enlarges the inner ear and shows problem areas. That way you can actually see what he sees.
