Got hearing aids, can hear but way too much

I am on the fence right now, I have Hyperqusis, that may not be spelled correctly. Sensitive hearing, after all of the loud noise in my life, hitting a nail set and bouncing of the nail, PLINK, and my hearing hasn't been the same. Now I hear alright, but am starting to have trouble understanding what I hear, if that makes any sense. They say that the longer you let it go, the harder it is for your brain to relearn what you have lost. I have had tinnitus since I was 4 or 5. In the divorce, I went with my dad, think private heavy equipment operation. My babysitter was a heavy coat on the floor of an old D-8. Or a Dragline , old coat on the floor in front of a straight 8 Chrysler's radiator. So I wear musicians 10 decibel filters or muffs when necessary. They say the really good aids, Starkey, we can get things back under control. Getting close to chucking out $5,500 or so. Will let you know when it happens.
