Thank you all for the answers! The surgery was done yesterday. Selected 1 Rondo and 1 Sonnet. Now trying to schedule follow up appointment, which is not easy...because the doctor is so busy.

Hi, I'm trying to choose the best option and can't decide. MedEl is offering 2 processors until August 2015. I have three options 1. Opus 2 + Rondo 2. Opus 2 + Sonnet 3. Sonnet + Rondo I like the third option, the cons is that Sonnet doesn't have rechargeable batteries yet. They will be...

NYNY, thanks! By the way, I didn't have any psychological evaluation. All I had only 2 evaluations with 2 different audiologists and they both said I'm a good candidate for CI. They explained me everything all risks etc, I know that I shouldn't expect 100% success. My speech discrimination is...

Congrats!!!

I went thru second CI pre-evaluation today. My surgery date is April 30. Got one vaccine today, and should get another shot in early april.

I have this feeling, too.

Thanks for opening the WHOLE NEW WORLD of opportunities! I'm using text relay services and they are AWESOME!!!!!! Now I don't have problems with phone calls, though I didn't try to use it for job interviews yet.

Yes, I have only MediCal/Medicare and don't have private insurance

Oh, your posts make me want to get CI, too, I've never heard birds... But I'm so afraid of it, I'm afraid to depend on the insurance, doctor and medicine...what if the CI get broken and I won't have insurance and etc

Thank you both for detailed posts! RisinDragon have you thought about CI? HOH-ME another question, will the Medicare cover CI maintenance, doctor visits and etc the rest of the life? WOW!

I hope so, too! Keep fingers crossed, today is July 9

I'm interested in this application, but for Android. And will this app work only in Cinema? May I use it on computer? I like to watch movies on computers and some of them don't have captions.

Absolutely the same! This is really discouraging me. I think silicon valley area is really good location to find a job, more vacancies, a lot of migrants, so most people(and companies) tolerate imperfect English. Anyway, I can't compare, since I never tried to find a job in different states.

Wow! I just only noticed that you edited your post, and added more info! I'm certainly going to PM you as soon as I digest all this new information I gained after opening this thread! You guys made my day! Thank you all! I'm so touched by your attention to my problem!

Thank you! How did you find audiologist that accepts medicare? I went to the primary care doctor today, and they said they will give me referral...hope to find finally audiologist that accepts Medical/Medicare. I went to my previous audiologist in the end of 2011, when I didn't have any...

Thank you very much for opening my eyes on text relay services! I tried to send you private message, and couldn't :)

I would agree with that. I have a lot of mates that found the jobs in SQA field after the high school(and SQA courses), and nobody was interested in their education. Most of them even didn't had computer related background, they changed career just right after the courses. And they are hearing...

Monarhistka, when I read your nickname, I understood that you are Russian speaking person, I was going to type you in Russian, but decided not to do it in the public thread, so everyone could understand us. Thank you very much for the information! I haven't heard about text relay services, I...
