Hearing Loss: Come introduce yourself and connect with others

Those are my sentiments exactly. I still don’t think this country priorities hearing loss the way it should.
I know they are now working on finding a cure for hearing loss but my question is what took them so long. They didn’t start to even address it until 1988. Hearing aids have come a long way but the ultimate answer is going to be finding a cure for hearing loss. Maybe not in my lifetime but hopefully for generations to come.
My new Signia IX BTE hearing aids are the best yet and I hope they keep getting better.
I actually went outside my TruHearing network to the UCH audiology department at UCH in Denver and after 45 minutes of testing my audiologist determined getting CI would not make a noticeable difference in my hearing loss and then proceeded to tune them better than they have ever been tuned before. The testing was also much more extensive than anything I had experienced before. I didn’t leave her office till after her office officially closed at 5:30. I was there for 90 minutes.
It cost me $90 but it was worth every penny. Future tuneups will only cost me $50. Just realize many private audiologists have seen their patient load increase and they have gone from two audiologist to one in their offices. Just a thought for those out there that don’t feel their hearing aids are working as well as they should be.
Another set of eyes never hurts when it comes to hearing loss.
