Hey guys!

Some of you know I have some troubles with my hearing, especially on my right ear after an accident with a rifle which gave me reduced hearing and persistent tinnitus. Tinnitus Retraining Therapy helps me live with tinnitus, but the hearing impairment is becoming slightly troublesome. And at such a young age! I'm not even 30

So anyways, I just sent an email to get a doctor's appointment, hopefully in about a month's time. I filled out this form where it did indeed seem like I'm the sort of person who should get a hearing aid. What I'm wondering is how good are these? Does anyone here have hearing aids and are you happy with yours? Did it improve your life?

I think my right ear is particularly impaired or even non-functioning at some frequencies. I've read hearing aids can somehow compensate for frequencies you have trouble of hearing? Is it true?

So, gimme some rays of hope and some positive posts about hearing aids please.
