Thank you to Alicia for her reply to this... Clearly she is (not) of an age when people DID only wear one hearing aid as a general rule.

but if you had to wear only one, in which ear would you prefer to wear it, and why - and do you wear certain equipment on certain occasions, and different at other times, and why?

would you want him or her to be newly qualified, newly qualified and wear hearing aids, vastly experienced or vastly experienced and wear hearing aids, and why? Would you want them to be a different sex, and if so, why?

Jenny, was this the first time you have been to an audiologist who wears hearing aids? If not, what hearing aid/s did the other/s wear?

how would you rate closed captioning/subtitling on TV at the moment, and in your opinion, how has it changed from when you first used it?

It was only a wee thing!

Anyone got any thoughts about what they would say if they saw a model wearing hearing aids or a cochlear implant?

to see your present audiologist, and is this distance (a) about the same; (b) less or (c) further than any other audiologist you have seen?

Do you (a) wear headphones on top of your hearing aids/cochlear implant (s) all the time you listen to music; (b) headphones on top of your hearing aids/cochlear implant (s) some of the time you listen to music; (c) just wear headphones when you listen to music or (d) just wear your hearing...

With which have you had longer battery life?

No, it's not a strange question. There are - potentially - more than one way of doing most things, and I thought I would pick your brain on this one. Someone I know is on medication for epilepsy and high blood pressure and sometimes they have that for epilepsy first and then the high blood...

I think he has a few less pounds/dollars than he used to have, and he wants to get a few back - but this is not the way to do it!

put a bte in your ear is earmould first, but do you think it would make any difference if you put the bit that goes behind your ear in position first, then see to your earmould?

deaf aids, would that offend you?

of equipment, which make would you definitely not want to wear in the future - or which make do you want to wear, if you have not worn this one already, and in both cases, why?

Out of interest, are you the only person where you work who wears hearing aids? Has / have the other person / people who does / do made any comment? I think they look cool!

Has your alteration in your hearing loss been a gradual or a sudden thing? Do you think you'll have to change the hearing aids you wear?

Do you have a favourite of what you have done? Actually, I know someone who put stickers of an elephant on HER hearing aids!

hearing aids or a cochlear implant, is it made by the same company that made your equipment, and has there been a time when you have been wearing that made by different manufacturers? Have you ever wanted to wear equipment that has been made by theirs?

How did it vary from what you wear now - or if you've haven't had anything like this, how different do you want your next equipment to be as compared with what you wear now?
