Jyl, your situation is similar to mine at that age. The issue with confusing environments may be due to "discrimination loss." You may be able to hear speech in quiet environments better than average and still not be able to filter the speech of person at the table across from you from voices 20 feet away. I have it bad, and it doesn't get better.

EDIT: Loud sounds didn't bother me at age 53, but at about 57-58 loud sounds became increasingly, physically painful. I don't go to movies in theaters often, but when I do I wear earplugs.
