Hearing aids in but still not understanding words

Thanks, Julie, for the info on REM. I think my audiologist did that on my second visit to fit the Phonak. I'm at around week 3 and my word comprehension has not improved significantly, if at all. It sounds as if I need to be patient and wait for some more weeks yet.

I’ve had my Oticon hearing aids for two years and clarity is still a problem.

Be sure you know the length of your trial period with new hearing aids. 30 days is typical but May not be enough time to be sure hearing aids are working well. Don’t hesitate to let your provider know you’re not satisfied. Ask for an extended trial period if necessary.
