Well, I tried a second set of the Q's to see if there was something wrong with the first and it was the same thing--total static anytime there was a sound. I'm keeping the Q's I have for a couple more weeks and then it's off to CI land. Waiting for the new AB mid-scala implant to be approved since it sounds like it's made for people like me that have some residual hearing to preserve. I have follow up appointments scheduled for late June, with an anticipated FDA approval sometime in July. If anyone has any updated information on that, I would really like to know.
Opinions needed--my hearing loss on paper is almost identical. My right ear, on paper, is slightly worse than my left ear. In real life, however, I feel like my right ear is stronger. If I am walking at the mall, for example, I try to keep people on my right side because I feel I can hear--understand--them better on that side. If I have to talk on the phone, I use my right ear--I tried my left ear again the other day and it's just not quite as good. I'm sure the dr will have something to say about this but if you were me, which ear would you implant first and why?
Not a great quality scan but here is my latest hearing test.
