Does not wearing a hearing aid accelerate an already known hearing loss?
Hearing aid use will not accelerate or decelerate your hearing loss, but wearing a hearing aid may keep your brain's speech interpretation ability sharp. The prescription you have for your hearing (called an audiogram) is a representation of how well your ear picks up the sounds around you so that they can be sent to the brain. If you have a hearing loss, it will be represented in the audiogram. If you have a hearing loss but do not wear hearing aids for it, the brain will not get all of the sounds that are necessary to interpret speech. The longer you go without hearing these sounds, the more synapses in the brain will weaken and die from disuse. It's the ear's version of the "use it or loose it" effect. The longer you wait to get a hearing aid, the more difficult it will be for your brain to adjust to one. Even though your audiogram may or may not change over time, without a hearing aid, your understanding ability may well worsen. Additionally, many studies have shown that even a mild untreated hearing loss contributes to dementia. If you need hearing aids, they will help more than your day to day hearing - they will prevent your brain from weakening as well.

All that means is that your hearing and speech processing scores indicate a possibility of problems in the brain. The two major possibilities that the Dr wants to rule out are a brain tumor or a mini stroke which may have affected your hearing processing centers. These problems are easily ruled out with an MRI.
