HearPeers Heroes Kara of Canada Posted July 12, 2017 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 Hello! Welcome to Hearpeers! Are you a candidate for CI(s)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weiglerichard Posted July 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 Hi there, I'm getting there at sometime in the future. HAS are becoming more and more difficult to find benefits from. At some point I'll be heading to an evaluation for CIs. I will probably go to UCSF for that for a baseline evaluation soon and we'll go from there.
