Going to get new 'digital' hearing aid in six weeks time.
All on the National Health service and free.
Can't wait to see if it damps down this damned tinnitus.
Oh well, at 77 maybe I shouldn't be too surprised.....had tinnitus for 20 of those years...I read the other day about someone who got rid of his tinnitus after a brain op and woke thinking he was deaf and then was scared to death at all the noise he could hear!
I could put up with that..



Eddie,

You will perhaps lose your tinnitus with the new hearing aids, I did, it comes back when you take them out, the first time I walked up the stairs with the new hearing aid I heard this clicking noise, it was the bones in my ankles, when you run the wash basin taps it hurts like hell at first, noises you haven’t heard for 40 years. And to cap it all you will now know what your Doris as to put up with when you play the KB. You may decide to sell it! Eddie you will be surprised, I can guarantee it!

Tony
