Anyone have experience with the receiver in the canal hearing aids? Just got my first pair the other day and my ears feel all blocked up like I've got air bubbles and water in them. The audiologists say the molds are too small and packed with electronics for them to make vents in them for airflow. So has anyone had the same problem sand if so, did the blocked feeling eventually go away? I really don't want to give these up because they can connect to apple devices without a streamer.

I honestly can't give you advice due to me being profoundly deaf, and chose not to wear
any aids do to them giving me horrible staticky feedback, and migraines.

I don't use that style of hearing aid, I stillhave the over the ear model. Not sure if they'd do me any good actually.

Nope, if you can't have any sort of vent, the feeling will always be there. I'm really really picky about my vents. They have to be ultra small, but they do have to be there.

Just got new molds the other day with vents and they're perfect. Not much of a problem with feedback at all.
