Surgery Followup Day

Today I went back to the surgeon for a follow up visit and have the stitches removed. Ouch!
Thankfully everything looks good and I can resume my normal activities.
I put my hearing aid in the implanted ear to determine if I had any residual hearing after the implant.  That happens sometimes with an implant, but not in my case.  I’m surprised that my non implant ear, which I’m hearing with now, is as bad as it is. I really thought my hearing in that ear was better. But even with the new hearing aid I don’t hear well at all except through the iphone.

So my Activation Date is Dec. 18.  I tried to get it set earlier but he waits til a month after implant. I’m just anxious to get started hearing again.  I know it will take a lot of practice listening and I’m ready to get started.

I’ll just have to wait 15 more days. Meanwhile it’s time to get ready for the Christmas season.
