I agree absolutely! I have heard of people being reluctant to get a Cochlear Implant because it will show. Mine doesn't show much but I would be delighted it it did. On a couple of occasions I've been able to talk to people about it and the difference between a CI and a HA. The only thing I wanted was to be able to hear again! If I had something sitting on my head and behind my ear, so what! I'm sorry your aids aren't being as helpful as you hoped.
