Luckily I learned to speak when I was young. Anyway, I just wanted to say that the audiologist should teach you how to re tube and clean your aids by yourself. I've always done my own, hooks and tubes, it's really easy, you just need a good sharp pair of small scissors and tweezers.yorkshire lassnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-16106985375470211282018-08-01T11:44:18.202+01:002018-08-01T11:44:18.202+01:00I just have to walk across the road to our medical...I just have to walk across the road to our medical centre to get new batteries. I wasn't given anything to clean mine with.

The National Health Service provides me with one free of charge and I get no say in which type, I have to accept what they give me. Perhaps some of our USA readers might have some ideas for you.

There are many brands available here in the U.S., but the technicalities are a bit confusing. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Told how to clean the things that go in your ears. Our drop in there is no wait, it is in our town library. I get batteries from the local hospital. We just phone for replacements to be sent.

The drop in service here has about a 15 minute wait, which I don't mind. I don't like the creepy Big Brother aspect of the cameras that see where you are. And sending a huge fine for overstaying, yikes. Terra https://www.blogger.com/profile/04396481049075747940noreply@blogger.com
