Shirley LImburg Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Hi May Beth, I really enjoyed listening to people's stories regarding their CI journeys. I was diagnosed with single sided deafness of unknown etiology when I was in 3rd grade. I seem to remember doing a hearing exam in K or 1st grade. So I believe I had hearing and lost it early. Regardless my left ear has heard nothing for a long time. My biggest fear is to go through the implant and have little or no hearing gain. BUT, I have hopes I would be able to hear better if I get a CI in my left ear. How much does a CI cost? Shirley Mary Beth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted November 18, 2022 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 @Shirley LImburg It would be great to hear from 2 ears for sure. My insurance paid for my CIs. Ask your CI center about costs. Different CI centers handle this differently. Some package MAPping appts in the charge and others bill everything separately.
