Just yesterday I had my hearing aids adjusted at Costco, as I was losing

comprehension. I was basically scolded for not wearing my hearing aids full time, and was told I won't recover what has been lost. However, being careful to use the aids full time from now on would greatly slow down or stop further loss of comprehension. Previously, I had to sit or stand right in front of the person talking in order to understand what they were saying.

I was not wearing my hearing aids while working outside for fear that I would lose those tiny objects. I was also not wearing them as soon as I got up in the morning. Some days I simply forgot to use them.

The one disappointment with hearing aids is that all the ones I researched were limited to a maximum of 8000Hz for adjustments. Twenty years ago, I discovered that I could not hear frequencies somewhere between 10KHz and 12KHz. I would like those and higher frequencies back, but . . .
I am sure that I have lost frequencies even lower than that since then.

Costco also told me that I needed to return once a year to have adjustments. I agree, as the losses I discovered yesterday were the result of no adjustments for 4 years!
