OMG! Thanks Ambrosia!!! Your a saint!

Thanks again for all the help! Lots of great suggestions! I didn't know you could test them out but I have only had CIC. I'm going with BTE this time. taking a walk around the store it a great idea! Noisy public areas is where I have the hardest time hearing. Do they offer a warranty or...

Thanks for the info everyone! I think I'm going to look into it. I'm in ontario, Canada (I assume a lot of you are in the states). I wonder if the pricing will be much more here:$

Wow 2 weeks! That would be great! The ones I have now take a size 10 battery so I am lucky to squeeze 4 days out of them. Thanks for the tip. I will definitely look into getting ones with bigger batteries.

Has anyone purchased HAs from costco? Were they considerably less expensive? Can anyone offer info on pricing? Thanks in advance!

The ones I have now beep. But it's not early enough to make a difference. It's like beep beep then 1 min later they shut off.. I find it pointless.

I had a visit with my Audi and my hearing is a little worse. As others posters suggested, my HAs don't cover my hearing deficit. Audi. suggests getting Nera Pro mini RITEs with micro molds. $5220 for two. Anyone have these? Is the price reasonable?

I totally understand wanting to cut back rather then rack up more. Just to let you know aleve is a low dose of Naproxen which is offered over-the-counter. Lol! I probably sound like a nut pushing this med but in all honesty it has allowed me to get back to living my life (upright.. and not...

sorry one more thing.. One reason for the back to give out (buckle over) is inflammation causing pressure on the nerves. When you have a flair up Give the antiinflamitorie a try and alternate hot pack / cold pack. 10 -15min each. Best of luck!

Hey give these a try:Naproxen sod 550mg It's a heavy duty antiinflamitorie. I have had two serious back surgeries (one requiring me to learn how to walk again). I have been on a laundry list of serious pain killers and in all honesty this was the only thing that helped and didn't make me feel...

p.s. I love posts like this that make you think:) I love seeing different view points!

That is a tough one! As another poster stated the world is over populated as is. producing "super humans" free of ailments and likely a greater life span would cause major issues for our planet. We already face problems with a depleting water supply and lack of quality agricultural...

Thank you all for your warm welcome! Seb, I had a chuckle when I read your post! So true! oh (eye roll) hearing people! LOL

I was quoted $5220.00 for 2 (right & left) Nera Pro mini RITE's including mico molds from listenup Canada. If you have these what did you think? Any issues? Is the price on point or am I getting ripped off? Any advice will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!

I think that's a great idea! It would be very helpful for those that need an opinion on aid/CIC related issues or get reviews for an upcoming purchase. You could also include assistive devices.
