the guy was a rude moron who I doubt very much would have been willing to write anything down. You could have told him that you are always willing to put your aids back in if you think the speaker has something intelligent to say. Then just stand there and stare at him.:eek3:

Well I'm going to assume you mean totally deaf even with your hearings aids. So the question I have are what kind of testing will they do to make that kind of determination. Will they just go by your progressive loss that shows on your audiogram or is there actual testing that they do. And...

How old is the smartlink?

I accidentally put them in with the wash. They looked nice, just didn't work.

My tubing looks exactly like that pictured. You pull the tubing into the ear mold until you feel it snap into place, no glue. So where can I get replacement tubing like that?

I have heard and read that that is not always the case, even with a single implant. Some people benefit from a CI, some don't. Some people take a year to adjust to the implant others sooner. Some people are happy with their implant others are not. As has been stated with the bilateral...

God, I wish there was a hearing pill.

I thought we were going to ignore this guy?:D

You need to tell yourself you're going to wear them. Nobody wants to wear aids. But we just do.

Where are your parents through all of this. How about your doctor or audiologist. How about legal representation. Why do you have to fight with everyone for your rights.
