Hearing Aids

Well it appears I've started several 'hearing aids ' threads, so as an update- I had the hearing test at the VA this morning. The Audiologist then took silicone impressions of my ears, and submitted an order for my hearing aids. I will pick them up October 24th
 

I picked up my new behind the ear Phonak Audeo 190 Sphere rechargeable hearing aids 2 or 3 weeks ago from the VA (my third pair from the VA).....they are made in Switzerland and the charger is made in Lithuania.

So far I like them, the sound clarity is considerably better than my old pair and background noise is darn near non existent.

My first two pair of Phonaks from the VA were the changeable battery type and I was hesitant about rechargeables but the test technician was cute as a bug and I let her sweet talk me into trying them :).....I've got 90 days to return them if I end up not liking them for something else / another brand but I don't foresee that happening.
 

Things are starting to sound muffled and garbled to me, also. The last time I saw my doctor, I mentioned this and she suggested I see an ENT. When I called one, I was told I needed a referral script. I said I had a verbal script. They need something in writing. I called my PCP and told her that and she said to come in and see her. I'm not making another appointment and paying a $100 co-pay so she can give me a script.
