Jody I’ve had 3 real cases, and a suspected one. In each case the Audiologist took 1 out; I got one out.
The suspected one bothered me because when I opened my recharging case one HA didn’t have a dome on the receiver. It was a work day and my family doc helped me out.
My dispensing audiologist-who-quit would send me home with spare domes when I asked. He would save old empty containers in his office, and use that to keep the domes clean. So the box had the wrong label on it. My current Phonaks are size 4.0 S M or L. My 2 old Phonak HA’s domes are just labelled S, M or L. I intend to use the old Phonaks as back ups.
I appreciated the posts by the others. I know that others have had these issues. And sometimes their problems have been worse than mine. I’ll work on prevention! I didn’t like having to get one out myself.
I wouldn’t have thought of going to a pharmacist! Thanks for the suggestion.
