Hearing impairment grade

Even with hearing aids, it is becoming increasingly difficult to understand what people are saying.
Hearing problems run in my family.

My brother had a hearing aid when he was younger than me, and later he had to communicate by writing, and finally he had a cochlear implant.

I could barely hear my own voice, so I went to my nephew, who is an ear specialist at an ENT clinic, and had a hearing test and an electroencephalogram.

It is said that it has gotten bad enough to receive a disability rating.
Turning up the volume on the hearing aid seemed to help a little, but it was still difficult to distinguish words.

I had my ear mold taken to get a new hearing aid because I heard that the hearing aid technology has been greatly improved these days.

I was happy to receive the benefit of free hearing aids for the disabled, but I also felt sorry.
