I'm trying to find out if I'm a suitable candidate for a Cochlear Implant... Two days a go I had deep seated wax removed from my inner ears at UAMC. Yesterday I had an audiogram to assess my ability to hear sounds and to understand spoken words without using my amplifier with its three band equalizer... It's safe to say, h results confirm that I need some major improvements...
I hope to announce my Cochlear Implant Candidacy in a couple of weeks, after seeing the surgeon...
I discovered about a month ago that there is a possibility of implanting devices in each of my cochleas that might improve my hearing significantly. That is very exciting, and also nerve-racking... I feel like putting surgical gloves, like the ones I saw in the lab, on my ears...;))
This is a "Tile" in some App that shows a few of the symbolic views from my day, yesterday...
All this is premature... I have an appointment with the aural surgeon week after next to see what he says...
