You do realize this thread is well over a year old and was brought back from the dead?
There are situations that hearing aids do not work or are not tolerated by the wearer.
My Dad had to get a hearing aid back in his early 50's, there were times it was helpful to him and then there were times that they just amplified way to much background noise and he just had to turn it off. The best one he had was a simple analog hearing aid that the audiologist prescribed it to be made.
The worst one he had was the "digital" version, he never could get it adjusted correctly and went back to wearing his old analog one until it died. After that, he quit wearing a hearing aid.
They are expensive and there is zero guarantee that they will work for the wearer, you can keep going back and have adjustments made with newer aids but sometimes it just doesn't work out.
There is no substitute for the natural real ear, take good care of your ears, wear hearing protection when around loud noises..
