Compared to what I have from 2 years in the second most heavily sprayed area's exposure to Agent Orange, the Tinnitus is minor, even if more annoying.
I have a Rx from the audiologist for hearing aids. And though she is with Kaiser she told me the VA health plan is better for hearing aids, at least the ones she wrote me up for that can be adjusted to help cancel out the Tinnitus a bit better.
Now I just have to get together with VA.
A couple years ago I got hearing aids from the VA. They were much better than anything I could have afforded on the private market. Last week I got an external microphone from the VA that hooks into my hearing aids via bluetooth. The microphone also hooks into the optical audio outlet on my TV. AMAZING! For the first time in many years I can listen to the TV and understand (mostly) what the news presenters are saying. I don't have to rely on close captions.
