Where/how would I go about getting this test done?

I feel like I still have so much to learn. So are you saying that it is likely I have some hearing loss since I have tinnitus and hyperacusis, even though my standard hearing tests have been perfect? If so, would a hearing aid maybe help me deal with my pain and discomfort then?
