Welp, I'm finally going to go about getting hearing aids. So I'll be reading a lot from your experiences. [View all]

Born w so-so hearing. Had a hearing doc pretty early as a kid. It's has gotten somewhat worse. My biggest trouble has always been consonants: b-d-p, c-t; things like that, and interference from background noise.

I've got Medicare (which I think doesn't cover them), and Medicaid.
So I don't know how limited my choices are.

See you around.
