Once it comes out of your dog put it in dry and store and then see if it still works. If the aid is not real old it may be covered under the manufacturers warranty. I have resound azures and they are covered for damage, lost, etc, for I think 3 yrs.

All any of this proves is that amplification and comprehension work hand in hand for deaf dude.

I don't really know what hard of hearing really means. My attitude is that my hearing is impaired since it's not normal. It doesn't mean I am impaired although I certainly am when my back is turned from something and I don't hear it. When people ask if I am hard of hearing, hearing impaired...

The thing about cochlear implants other then the fact as a result of the surgery you are now permanently deaf is the fact that for a lot of people it can take months to adjust to them. Constant changing of programs in order to hear makes me wonder what people do about their jobs as they are...

Oh and C-Nice. Who the hells the starting quarterback this year?:roll:

As CJB stated, the numbers are just that, numbers, and can only give a person guidelines, and do not give real life situations. When my speech comprehension is tested the volume is jacked up loud enough so it doesn't cause pain and my tests scores are around 46%. But this in no way can be used...

Genetic testing might give you a better idea of where you are headed. I believe the Clev Clinic does the testing you need, although I'm not sure if your insurance will cover it.

Nothing quite like a video without closed caption.

Well just going by my own personal experience with my profound loss, I have found that although amplification may help with comprehension somewhat, keep in mind that without amplification speech comprehension is zero, more and more amplification really doesn't improve comprehension all that...

Rt ear worse then left but not by much, Each year there seems to be a further decline, but very slight. But when you look at the decline over say a 10 yr its substantial.

Never let anyone pressure you into any kind of elective surgery. Try out some of the newer aids, see how they work out. You're only 20 and you still have 3 yrs with your current insurance. Also research and technology is on your side, considering your age. If you're not sure then wait.

Go on the Phonak website for more info.

All this info is great. Unfortunately, most people, with normal hearing, couldn't care less.

The naidas are probably more advanced, and Phonak has all these accessories that you can use with the naida's, but you might not like the way they sound. But you should give them a try.

I use the LG Dare with my telecoil. I had been using the EnV2. The Dare seems louder and clearer. The Dare has a T3/M3 rating. I'll be honest with you the rating of T4/M4 to me seems to have a better quality sound but not necessarily a louder sound.

Michael told his former wife that he thought one day he would end up just like Elvis. When he did, how could that then be considered murder.

try "Sonic Alert" alarm clocks. I've had one for years with no problems.

Anyone have any experience with the new updated smartlink which came out earlier this month? 8/09

I'm just glad they didn't find him lying on the bathroom floor with his pants down around his ankles. Once is enough for that.

Take your time, don't rush. Try different brands if you can. Wear them for a couple of weeks to see how you like them. Remember 4 or 5 visits for adjustments is not unusual for digital aids. That's the beauty of them, they can be adjusted many different ways. If you liked resound try the...
