My cat gets car sick when I have to take him anywhere. My solution was take a quilt off my bed that he likes and place it in the front seat. Since he refuses to sit quietly in the carrier, I place him on the blanket and cover him slightly. He settles himself in and then just goes to sleep...

I am pretty sure he can hear the feedback but is not able to figure out how to stop it. Once he figures that out I'm sure he'll stop it instantly. Can he hear other sound along with the feedback? Yes, however the feedback will just be slightly louder than the other noises. As for...

My mother used to tie fishing string around my tonehook and attach it to a safety pin. That way my mom didn't have to worry about us kids losing it. lol.

Just finally got home and situated. The CT Scan went well without hitch. I am hoping to get results either by the end of the week or the beginning of next week. I do have bad news however. Had my audiologist recheck my hearing because I was having issues with my left ear being too...

I finally managed to get an appointment. Nurses don't understand the concept of call my cell because I will not be at the home number due to college. Anyways, the appointment on the 8th of Feb. Found out that they want to review my expectations again. That shocked me a bit. I thought I told...

Relaxing for me is easier to say than doing right now. Thanks for the positive support though. I appriciate it.

Yeah it is. I am getting so stressed out because of it. My back has huge knots and I can't sleep. I know I shouldn't be stressed to it but I am.

It also depends on what insurance will say too. Bleah

I do it all the time. I always feel like my ears are overworked after I get home from a long day of school or work. Also my ears always itch so much cuz of the plastic mold. Ick. Once I get home I just pull the HA right out.

Got a little bit of news...not much Got a call from one of the nurses. She said that the doctors want to continue with the testing and have me get a CT scan. I dont know if it's good news or bad news. I should hear more later on.

They know. One of the people who interviewed me was concerned that I had recruitment and she was gonna bring it up in the meeting.

I went to the best Audiology/CI in the midwest area. Boys Town National Hospital. I don't know exactly what all is going on as for insurance or what the CI team will decide. From what I gathered from the people who interviewed me they seem certain that I should get it, but that may be...

Thanks for the advice. I will most certainly look into it.

Sorry for the delayed response. Been busy ever since I got back from Omaha. The appointments went well. From the looks of it, they will approve the CI, but the Insurance will most likely deny my claim. Sucks. We'll find out if it's due to the fact that I can hear out of my other ear or...

I already have told them that I have tetinitus. The tetinitus is so bad I can barely concentrate on the tasks I need to complete. I am fortunate that I did manage to pass my classes with really good grades with the bad tetinitus and lack of hearing. Two A's, Two B's and one C. The C was in...

Yeah, I know my word reognition is pretty high for someone who has a moderate/severe hearing impairment. I am barely hitting the minimum requirement for the CI. :Ohno: I'll let everyone know what the doctor says as soon as I know. Thanks for the encouragement. :ty:

Picture update. This was taken on my birthday in November. Apparently my friends are mean. They made it up later by giving me new fishes and taking me out to Ruby Tuesday. :giggle:

I couldn't tell if you were joking or not. Kind of hard to tell on here really. Damn screen. *curses* :giggle:

My hearing test is already in the percent to qualify. The testing for me is to see weither or not I able to get the surgery. My word recognition is now down to 60%. It used to be up to in the 80 percental bracket with my old hearing aids. I would like to get the Harmony HiRes.
