tjc transport Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 i got my new ears yesterday. it is amazing what i WAS NOT hearing. tv volume is now in 9, yesterday morning it was on 32-34. i hear the furnace, hot water heater, and refrigerator turn on and off. and the floors in the 94 year old house creak as i walk around. i can also hear cars driving past the house from inside too.. on the bad side, i can no longer ignore she who must be obeyed because i did not hear what she said....

70mackMB Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I have a pair of "sound amplifiers" because at the time you could not get "hearing aids" off the internet. They have four settings, speech/noisy room/outdoors/automobile & road noise, just cant remember which one is which. Setting one two three or four! Go to the men's room and stand between the petitions or walk thru a narrow hallway l get alot of feedback noise. Doctor said the left ear was the worst one from driving with the window open for so many years. .....Hippy 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/69424-shop-talk/page/56/#findComment-524548 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjc transport Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 not really. hearing aids help you hear better....but if your ears are dead, hearing aids will not work. for that, they need to do implants.
