    Update and what to expect at my next appointment.

    I have another question on that. Are the sounds loud so I know what to prepare myself for? Also I was told I didn't need to make an appointment, only my hearing aid tubes need to be checked, I forgot to tell her, one of the aids, the right one, eats batteries while the left one holds okay. :O...

    Update and what to expect at my next appointment.

    thanks! That looks sorta neat actually! So this machine helps test the hearing aids? The only thing I will admit I'm bad with is taking only one so I can look at it for a second out of fascination and then place it back in. XD! I also discovered that the controller is now dead! I will have to...

    Update and what to expect at my next appointment.

    Hi everyone! My new hearing aids work very well for me. I sometimes forget I have them on. At first there is a blocked feeling but then it goes away. To review my colours I chose were orange mould and purple ears. XD! :) i love how I don't have to turn the tv volume up very loud any more. I...

    So far so good!

    thanks! Me too. It was a bit of a trial to get them but after finding the right person everything worked out in the end. ^^

    So far so good!

    I can hear all sorts of little things I had been missing out on and loud sounds are no longer a problem. I have read though in my phonak book the wearer should not be exposed to super loud sounds like explosives like say fireworks while wearing the hearing aids. The hearing aids are very...

    Got them! :O!

    thanks, me too. The right one flops over because the tubing is too long but that can be solved. If i feel tired after a while which is a good 3 hours for me I take them out. The other day I caught my Dad using the microwave when i asked him not to and it scared the living day lights out of him...

    Phonak Sky V

    I have a pair of phonak sky v as well! :O! mine are full shell but they are really comfortable and i agree with you there. Only had them for 3 days but they (the one) don't fall out or anything very easily (my other comes off but that's because the tube is too long) I also like how they seem to...

    Got them! :O!

    thanks! They are really nice aren't they? I still can't believe i fell asleep in them XD!I woke up and felt this strange sensation in my ears and i was like 'oh yeah, that's my hearing aids...uh oh' XD! It's not a bad sensation either, they feel very light compared to my first pair! Sounds that...

    Got them! :O!

    I got them and I can't understand what the previous audiologist was going on about full shell behind the ear hearing aids feeling cumbersome! :O What a load of nonsense! The material I have is very different, it is silicone. They are orange mould and purple 'ears' XD! The programming itself went...

    Ear infection and fitting on the 26 of this month! Yikes!

    thanks LlamaChick and Doctear! It healed Monday in fact! It ran a fever for it's last course and the next day i felt much better. That was NOT fun. I hadn't had an ear infection in three years since a sinus related surgery. We believe the sinusitis/ear infection at the time is what caused my...

    Ear infection and fitting on the 26 of this month! Yikes!

    Ah yes. Thank you. Dad said the same thing to me, he wears a pair too. His are very small. This ear infection is not as bad as the one I had three years ago, that was a nasty one! Just makes me feel off and a tiny bit of vertigo from time to time. The pain at least has subsided but it still...

    Ear infection and fitting on the 26 of this month! Yikes!

    I got some interesting news. I have an ear infection now and has been bothering me since the Wednesday prior to my impression taking for both my ears. Can they still fit me if I have a middle ear infection? I have been known to have these last for quite some time. I used to get them (middle ear...

    Getting fitted soon!

    It sure did. The popping sensation was a bit weird but I figured that's because it was hardening or something. Ah. So when a replacement is necessary sometimes a new impression must be made? :O did not know that.I will keep that in mind should the need arise. She told me again that she was a...

    Getting fitted soon!

    I got the moulds done today LOL! That was weirder than I recalled. I was laughing because it tickled but i tried to stay still XD!! For a while my ears felt so strange after the fact. They told me this would be normal for a while. The right ear took longer than the left ear to feel normal again...

    Getting fitted soon!

    Next step: getting an impression made for both ears this Friday and then I choose colours. This is an extremely patient audiologist. Am I ever glad I found her! A lot of people just assume you have to stick with something just because they found it. If the person for whatever reason leaves a bad...
