I don't know how much they cost but I would rather pay money for more powerful hearing aids with fewer features but with potentially longer life than potentially have HAs that you outlive in a short period of time.

Is the test you were asking about perhaps the ABR? Or Balance test?

It sounds like you are so over seeing doctors and having testing! There is nothing wrong with asking for more time if that's how you feel. I think the only thing is with the testing is that you can rule out something that might affect your overall health, e.g. an autoimmune condition for example.
