I have over the ear hearing aids that I got from the VA ( many years on the flight line). They are over the ear and into the ear canal type. My question is this, would weight loss make them not fit correctly anymore?

If you were fitted for them.... they might. That also depend on rather you gain and loose weight all over your body.

I had to have my ear pieces redone several times but it did not affect the aid itself. little cost they could also adjust the length of my tube that ran from my aid to my ear. hope this helps

Thank you. That helps a lot. I called the VA and left a message at the clinic. Hopefully they call back tomorrow.

Just got a return call from the VA. It seems that I need an adjustment due to the weight loss. I will be going to the walk in appoint tis done. I just hope they don't take my hearing aids and send them out. I have a very hard time hearing (mostly female voices) without them.

GREAT I hope they can fix them there for you keep us posted

They put in large domes. I still seem to be having the same issue. I guess I need to go back to the VA as a walk in.

my ear pieces are now the childs size go figure.

Really? Wow!

Well, I have to go back to the VA as a walk in to the audiology clinic. I am still having the same issues. This is getting very frustrating.

just hang in there hopefully they will be able to get it fixed. I think I had to try several earpieces before they found ones that worked some were too big so they hurt and the small ones slipped out. good luck to you

Thanks. I am having to push the larger dome into my ear canal just so I can hear. It is starting to get really uncomfortable. It is also getting frustrating that when I chew it moves around and I can't hear.

sounds exactly like the problem I had. just keep going back and they will find a way to make it work for you. good luck
