I wear behind the ear hearing aids, and they’re not actually so bad, i forgot my decibel loss, all i know is that i’m mild deaf, and mine really helps me alot, the bad thing is that it makes my ear sore if i wear them all day everyday. <3
yea me too. im 15 and wear them. i have a deformed bone in my ear. but u kno wat reallt sucks? i got pushed in a pool today with them in. now i cant hear cuz theyre broke
well i guess im almost in the same boat as you guys. I just had Audio trauma to my ear. 2 days ago and my ear feels muffled and kind of a small perssure. i also hear a small ring.. I think i may have damaged it pretty good =,( Im going in tomarrow to have it checked out
wish me luck!
Im hard of hearing from a bone and nerve loss when I was born. I have worn hearing aids my entire life. It sounds like you have an ear infection, never fun. but relatively easy to take care of. they just flush your canal out and give you some antibiotics. Let me know what happens.
i had ear surgery and have a hearing aid… nobody even notices
yea, same with me, I’m 21 yrs old and I have to wear them everyday but if I want to listen to my mp3 player, I have to take it off just to do that when I go to school. I usually have troubles with them sometimes so I just have my interputer to fix it for me, just love my intrputer.
R u wearing the digital behind the ear hearing aids? If u r I believe they r only 4 ppl that r having problems with the hairs in there cochlear.
I wear a BTE and I don’t even like it. its gets old and sometime my ears needs to breathe.
What else are they going to come up with?
Good for the girl that she is happy with her outcome. GOOD for her.
remove the battery, leave it to dry for a few days. Change filters and hook, and they might be fine.
Worth a try.
i wear hearing aids!
Thank you for this! I’m getting hearing aids soon and it helps to know what’s available.
Hello.can you inform me where I can bay a hearing aid for adult?
hello i from spain i deaff
I myself have a 65% hearing loss in my right ear and a 55% in my left. I depend on my hearing aids to get me through the day; I thank God for them. People dont’ realize how hard it is to be hard of hearing, to wake up in the morning not being able to hear clearly; to have to turn up the TV volume to MAX and still can’t hear. It’s a blessing that hearing aids were invented.
buy
Excuse me Madam. Which one do you use? Which trademake? Can you recommend something?
I´ll grateful you. Thank you.
If do you live in U.S.A. Go to a Sears Store to the Hearing Aid Department, they have the best, for you . If not, I’ll recommend a Hearing aid of German Trade. Those are the best !!!. Good Look !!!.
Unless you cna get the digital aid programmed for you dont buy from ebay. these aids need and must be programmed to your prescription
Hi! I’m from Germany and I’m learning the job of a hearing aid audiologist.
For the people who want to get hearing aids:
Just go to a hearing aid audiologist. You just will have problems with the hearing aid if you get it from eBay or other sites…
The first problem would be that the h.a. isn’t matched with your hearing loss and you won’t be able to program it, because you haven’t the right software and I think you don’t exactly know how much amplification you need on which frequences…
Programs for private use are already on the web – and for free – and even more sophisticated than the “audiologist ones. They´re just a mythical branch who want to make too much money with haring aids that aren´t even worth 50 $.
i have 2 normal hearing aids and love it,,,
i dont like digital hearing aids because of different sound
see youtube: “hearing loss” +”rnl bio”
hearing loss cured!!!!!!
i’ve got 70% loss in left ear and 68% in right ear so yeah.. any tips for me ( i dont want to wear them at school). I will get bullied
There is NO best trade or model since everyone’s hearing loss is different and the age onset is different. And digital and analog hearing aids are DIFFERENT. I prefer the analog so I have Oitcon.
why the need of digital hearing aids?
cuzz digital sound is limmited in frequencies and sounds flat,unlike annalogue natural sound,
my mother also feels like if i will ever use digital aids,
but no i don,t believe my ears are damage and if so, all i want is a future upcoming surgery wich could reveave the lost hearing back.
i cut,nt see why a surgery is not possible????/
