Re: Cochlear Implant
Three days now - still smiling like an idiot!!
A bit of pain last night but two ibruprofen sorted that out.
My hair feels so itchy now but I can't wash it for TWO WEEKS as the stitches are just behind my ear and I must NOT get the wound or the stitches wet - but - yuck! stevmk2

I've missed all my friends on here - sorry about not being around but I've had a few things to sort out but - good news - everything's fine now at home.
I've also got a lot of online friends now from the Dating site so, once I've got my processor fitted - 11th July - I'll be getting out and about, trying to see all my new friends!

Re: Cochlear Implant
I'm on tenterhooks at the moment - sorry - I can't stop thinking about tomorrow, my implant switch-on.One thing I noticed almost straight away after the operation was that although Aid in my left ear was the better one at about 7% overall response, it was my right aid the carried much of the low frequency response.
Whether that's advantageous or not we will see tomorrow because what I hear now is more robotic and it is actually quite hard to adapt to it.
The notes I have from the hospital say the Implant will sound robotic at first until I get used to it.
Don't worry, I'll let everyone know how it all goes.
It took be 4 hours to deal with all the emails and messages when I had the operation so I'm prepared better this time.
