Hearing Loss: Come introduce yourself and connect with others
Hearing Loss | Last Active: 6 days ago | Replies (1640)Comment receiving replies
My hearing loss was not apparent until I turned 70. Up until now, I thought I would have to manage it, and I was surprised to find out that it is not possible. I am doing my homework to find out whether OTC could fit my needs, or seek professional assistance. Any suggestions for a plan of action?

While OTC are cheaper, sooner or later you need to see/hear an audiologist and get tested. Most of us lose the high end first and hearing aids can be tuned to match your hear loss. Plus, my guys provide retuning and testing to keep your aids meeting your needs and provide the filters that keep them clean. Mine now have rechargeable batteries. So no messing with batteries. I have to face the person speaking to me, otherwise, I just hear noise. Sometimes, silence is restive and comforting as is going to a concert.
