Hi there, just had to post as I'm so excited that I'm finally getting my hearing aids this afternoon after 9 1/2 long months of severe hearing loss and tinnitus! I admit to being slightly nervous too though! Silly as that sounds. Hope this finds you all well-Bev x

Hi Bev,

Great news to read this morning.

I was so happy when I got mine and went on fine with them from day one.

If you do find it strange then you can build up the time wearing then day by day.

Let us know how you go on with them later...lots of love glynis

Well! I can hear! It's a strange feeling after all this time but wonderful, even if everything sounds a bit like robots! And the tinnitus volume has reduced by about 80% and it was loud today. Wow- Bev x

Hi Bev

It did sound strange to me as well like you say like robot's but give it 2/3 weeks and you won't want to take them out, by the way, I've nicknamed mine my little beauties.

Take care, and keep us all posted.

Dave.

Hi Bev,

Great to hear you have your hearing aids and work a treat on your tinnitus too...

Wear them with pride ....lots of love glynis

That's great news Bev! Mine quieten my T too. I wouldn't be without mine now and wearing them is as routine - and essential- as putting on my makeup each morning. Love, Angela xx

Thanks for the replies guys, it means a lot. I'm sat watching emmerdale with the volume on 20 when I usually have it at more like 40 😊 Got music and dancing classes and playgroup with my daughter through the rest of the week so I can't wait to see how that goes-Bev x
