Hearing Loss: Come introduce yourself and connect with others

Jon, Although T-Mobile is twice as expensive for two lines, might be worth a try. First, though, I need to determine if my Samsung phone w/telecoil will work on the phone setting. Downloaded the app, tried it a couple of times briefly while I was out, didn't work...but could have been me. Unless my Samsung works on phone setting to deliver sound directly to my ear, it offers nothing better than our cable phone (which isn't much most days).
If I may ask, what's your trigger? For a couple of decades, I moderated an online Meniere's discussion group, and low hormone levels seem to be a more common trigger than most other things. Just curious...I also nagged VEDA into doing what was, at the time, the only book about Meniere's--designed, edited, and enabled it through printing and distribution.
You've offered a world of good info!

Talk to T-Mobile and have them evaluate your phone and what you need, the others is cheaper, but it doesn’t work so it isn’t even worth what you are spending on it.
As far as Meneres, my trigger is excess sodium and fluid retention. At 24 a Dr diagnosed it as nervous stomach, so for 15 years I was wondering what I was nervous about. Then I had a spell and ended in an emergency room, and the Dr said, “Follow my finger with your eyes, then he said follow my finger with your head.” “I said I can’t!” He said, “You have Meneres Disease!” From then on I had more diagnosis and got on Meclazine. I finally also pinned the spells on the sodium, I’ve had it under control for many years without and medication, just very low sodium intake under 1000 mg a day.
