The thing is, the brain is best at learning how to listen and to form language is best done at beginning stages of life. I got my implants in my 40's after a lifetime of using HA's.

AD is short for Alldeaf.

For me, it was stress at my job that caused me to be depressed. I got lucky and found a great job that has no stress at all. Just something to think about of one possible trigger.

Welcome

I believe Cochlear America is able to have MRI done also. The magnet is removable and also has a head wrap procedure.

Welcome. Hope you find what you are looking for. Might want to consider moving to a place where there is a deaf community.

Hi.

Not me. I grew up with hearing aids then got implants few years ago. BAHA is for those that don't have working eardrums and/or bones. It bypasses those affecting cochlear using the skull somehow.

That I do not know.

Bone-Anchored Hearing Aids

I would check first. Since it's a medical device, would be a good idea to check due to laws.

Why are you moving to South Dakota?

Hello and welcome!

Hello and welcome.

Also check with the disability services office. Also may want to check the state department of rehabilitation.
