Alicia, yes, isn't it insufferable, grrr but what can we do. if we only could hear just what we want lol.
A program with reduced background helps a lot, I found, I like it a lot especially when I am talking with someone in noisy situation like a party, restaurant
sometimes even I let it on when I am especially tired or migraining.
I am trying this new HAs - it's Motion 701 instead of going back to the original 700 kind I tried, which surprised me as I didn't know about it,
and I was told I might very well be the first one in Canada to try it out.
I am liking it so far, the programming probably will need better adjustment but I also need a new ear molds, too.
We'll see how it's gonna go.
