type of hearing aids - #13277
I am really struggling to decide on the right type of hearing aids for myself. A few months ago, I noticed my hearing going downhill, especially in crowded places—can barely understand what people are saying during family gatherings, and it's super frustrating. Went to an audiologist, and they mentioned different types of hearing aids but honestly, I felt overwhelmed with all the options. They talked about in-the-ear, behind-the-ear, and even some fancy ones that connect to my phone... like what?! I'm familiar with, like, two types of hearing aids, and now I'm stuck on which one might work best for me and my lifestyle. I work in a busy office too, so I need something that can handle all the chatter. I tried a pair of basic ones but they didn’t seem to do much good, especially during meetings! Ugh, it’s really tiring to keep asking people to repeat themselves. How do I even figure out which type of hearing aids will fit my needs? Should I go for the latest tech, or is there a simpler option that might suit me better? Any advice from those who have been there would really help! I just want to hear clearly again.
