If it happens to be your first time using hearing aids, it can be a good idea to jot down some notes about your experiences as you get used to living with the devices. Taking note of unpleasant sounds, issues with volume and any physical discomfort you may encounter can be useful when attending adjustment appointments with your audiologist or hearing care professional. Some experiences and feelings may indicate that the current settings aren’t quite right for you, but the information you present may help them identify the source of your problems.
