“You will be able to listen to TV or music without having to blast everyone else out.”

How and when did you first realize you were experiencing hearing loss?

Great hearing loss while in the Navy. I was not told about it. I sought care 35 years later and was granted a disability. Hearing aids are great. The phone clip to pair with the phone works well too.

Based on your experience, do you have suggestions for others on how and where to start? Any other important things for them to consider?

It takes a while to get use to them. When in crowds, it’s hard to differentiate noises. 

What was your biggest concern about hearing aids? Did that turn out to be true?

Losing the hearing aids was a concern and still is. COVID made it a nightmare having to wear facemasks.

What would you tell someone who is considering hearing aids?

You will be able to listen to TV or music without having to blast everyone else out.
