Hello fellaress Georgian, Hope all is well in Georgia today ( got married , kidnapped to Colorado) .. Yes I have ringing in my CI sided ear for the first few weeks after I was fitted with the processor. Now, 2 months later it is not so loud in the ringing dept. My tinnitus did come back somewhat though( drats ).

Many people with HA/CI get stress related headaches from straining all day to comprehend the sounds/speech they are trying to understand all day. It is one of the reason's I went ahead and got the CI, I was giving myself headaches from straining too much everyday just to hear with my 2 HA,s . Now with the CI and HA, I rarely get as severe as a headache as I did the last 2 years with 2 HA,s ( hmm maybe getting married and moving from my beloved south gave me the headaches ) I will ask wifey about that one lol
