I was told same thing about not being strong enough, and I find that they ITE is fine!

Hi, just reading your reactions to your new HA's. I was amazed how much better I could hear when I went from one CIC to two IC HA's. It took about a month for my brain to absorb the new sounds and settle down, definitely very tiring. I have them still and really need more and they are the Phonak...

This is where I bought my loop system from and they do have a large variety of assisted devices for people using hearing aides. You will also find articles to help you with your choices. The owner is very flexible and helpful should you want to talk to him about his products. I wear the...

My hearing aids cost me $5700 6 years ago and Phonak are telling me they are not made anymore etc etc and they keep sending them back when fixed by them minus my tele-coil. Personally, I think they are arseholes and I think I will go back to sending them to an online company I have used for...

I have digital hearing aids but I have moderate to severe hearing loss. I love my digitals. My abiity to hear better is phenomenal due to the digitals having better clarity for me. They automatically adjust to different scenarios or I can manually change them. My choice to add the manual...

Wow, I can't believe anyone passed that up.

Would that be Sandra Hobson? I used to go to her all the time.

I think the noise is what you could call the "Electromagnetic Field". I get the same sensations and sounds when I am anywhere that power is being generated and my T-Coil is going. Sometimes my HA's will give feedback depending on the type of electromagnetic field or device causing it. When I...

You can buy a Sony Ericson directly from any country if you really want one. I am from New Zealand but live in the USA and I have bought a cellphone from Amazon to use when visiting NZ. The exchange rate in NZ is better than in Europe.

Well You know how old they are by the model name. Me for example, I wear Phonak Savia's and I bought them in 2006, so they are an older model and has now been replaced. I bought them from hearingplanet.com and had them fitted by an audiologist in my city that was approved by...

I bought my hearing aids from hearingplanet.com 4 years ago. They have audiologists in your area that give you a hearing test and fit you with the aids. Their costs cover your aids for damage and loss for 2 years plus 2 years of checkups with the audiologist that fits you. Many rumours on...

I must remember that come-back! You're good!

Yeah, but aren't you police? I would have thought that your union would have negotiated all that if your hearing loss is work related or whatever? I'm from New Zealand and unless you are covered for work related issues from a noisy industry etc you have to pay for yourself. However, as I say...

I found out this year our insurance company doesn't cover hearing test. However, when I commented that is seemed like discrimination to the CS person I got a call back from the supervisor within 15 minutes to tell me that as a discretionary measure they would pay for a hearing test! I think...

Oh that's interesting because we have never really found out in our family about our hearing loss. That probably means ours in dominant or maybe not. My nana was hoh and 3 out of 5 kids I know are hoh, one of them my mother. Out of those 5 off-spring one died in WWII so don't know about him...

Oh my goodness :eek3::shock: Honestly, I haven't looked at it, but guess it can only be for Americans who are afraid of the boogey man! I mean, seriously now, communism???

Kia Ora to you SG! It's a small world and us Kiwi's are all over it!

Thanks for the welcome. I've been busy posting and learning!

Well she deosn't need to leave the house, but in light of her feelings, it would be very magnaminous of her to just remove herself and find something else to do. The social anxiety thing told me alot. Hopefully you two will sort this out and your wife will pull out of herself and do what...
