Clueless Shrink ! SallyLou said in part.. My comments here are NOT any type of negativity toward you, but more toward your shrink and the situation. If he's truly clueless, even though you've tried to explain things to him, then how do you know the course of action he's taking with you...

HA Interference.. I wear Starkey J13 Cierra BTE's which is M/T cell compatible. When in T-coil I find that in certain situations I'll get some interference with my PanTech c520 Breeze cell phone.. but not so bad that it causes problems. Overall I don't find it to be that much of a problem...

Reminds Me Of A Science Question.. Your db question reminds me of a science question I saw one time. If you have a automobile tire and rim... and together they weigh 40 pounds, does it now weigh 70 pounds if you put 30 pounds of air in it? Shi-Ku (Inquiring minds want to know.) Chishiki...
