Because of my unsteady hands, I have great difficulty putting in my hearing aids. Solution, anyone? Also, do PD patients have more problems with wax clogging their hearing aids?

My father had a lot of problems with that. I don't know if it's Parkinson's related or just genetic, since I have a lot of wax too. Fortunately, no hearing aids for me. My dad had to clean his out carefully every day, or rather his wife did since he couldn't do it himself. It's really important that you do that though. I saw that when he couldn't hear well, he tuned out the people around him, which made the dementia worse.
