ok, so i have been doing research on the cochlear implant since I am considering getting one (it won't be for a while! haha, but I am beginning to research process now at least...) and I've been told about all the pros and the positive things, and good experiences. And call me a cynic, but i know there has to be negatives to it. But I am having a hard time finding those stats. So like i said, i know the good. so gimme the bad & the ugly, haha. And i don't mean "oh yeah there's a chance of the magnet falling out of ur skull and floating into ur foot". Or like the VERY slim chance that the side of my face could be paralyzed, or something.
Give me the realistic stories here, please. And if its ur own personal experience(s), even better.
What it comes down to is, i feel like i still need convincing to get a CI. And, I am wondering if there are people out there who got the CI and they're like "hmmm yeah, i could have done without the cochlear implant, and been perfectly fine sticking with my hearing aids".
