1. what hearing aids do you wear? 2 Phonak Naida V Ultra Power

2. How good are they? They help me with environmental sounds and I can enjoy music with them. Speech comprehension not so much but I use ASL most of the time anyway.

3. Do they help you hear everything you want?Yes, I don't reeally care about speech discrimination. If I can perceive voice sounds that is good enough for me!

4. Are they uncomfortable?Yup

5. What degree hearing loss do you have? Profound, around 110-120dB up to 1000Hz with no response past that
