Told by my doctor today that I need two hearing aids. In his words my hearing is buggered.

Anyone on here with them and how do you find them.

Good grief. Look at this one. I wonder if the specialists over here buy these at $20.00 a pop and resell them for a couple of grand each.

Carolyn, my hearing loss is real. Perhaps Sparky's is selective. Grin

Derek, I find it very hard to accept that your family doctor didn't give you a referral to a specialist. I would think a hearing aid is something special to you and that you need a prescription.

I think the specialist is called an audiologist. I had a quick look at google and that seems to be right.

But I don't know your health care system.
