Kathy,

Basically everything. Didn't like something in my ears; didn't like that people could still see and would comment that I had hearing aids despite them being the least visable as possible; didn't like having to carry another remote control in my pocket; didn't like hearing the wind noise if I turned my ear into the wind OR had my car windows down and to top it all off I didn't really notice all that great of difference in my hearing. All this after 2 days of trying those stupid things. I called my ENT and said they are coming back. He had already filed a claim against my ins despite requiring me to pay for them in full. Several weeks later I got a payment confirmation from my ins that they had approved AND paid my ENT. I had to wait 10 days to my money back from the ENT and had to spend my time calling my ins co to make sure they knew that I returned the darn things. Still have not gotten a confirm from either my ins co or my ENT that the ins check was returned so I will have to spend more of my time making sure that was handled properly. nothing to like here....

Now one day I may have no choice but to use hearing aids and hopefully I will be a tad more tolerant or maybe there will be a breakthrough technology wise. lol
