| Although as a kid I wore a single BTE (until I was able to get two CICs
and benefit from binaural hearing), I'm reluctant to get two BTEs
because of the 'lifestyle change', mainly being able to listen to music
with headphones and use the telephone -- something which was never a
problem with my CICs.
Would an ITC aid offer me more than a CIC aid? I'm being recommended an
ITC for several Oticon models, and I will also ask the same question fo
a Phonak representative today.
Incidentally, I have my hair cut very short, and a BTE would be very
conspicuious -- and I know that I shouldn't mind, but it's hard to
shake the mentality of the past 10 years that I shouldn't give people
ANY reason to jump to (negative) conclusions upon first meeting me.
