I have Oticon, one in each ear. I am now living in W.Sussex, and have been pleased with the NHS service, polite staff etc. I was devastated to lose my perfect hearing, but apparently, as I have had R.A. for 8 years, the jawbone up to my ears has caused this. I only wear them at certain times of the day, luckily I can still manage without them if I am in a one to one conversation.
