Jackie Erickson Posted April 3, 2018 Report Share Posted April 3, 2018 Hi.My name is Jackie Erickson. I am 51 years old and live in a small town in Northeast Kansas. My hearing loss began three years ago when I woke up after a nap and couldn’t hear out of my left ear. I went to ENT, got a steroid injection, nothing worked to bring back my hearing. Ok, I thought, at least I have my right ear. Fast forward to March, 2017. I woke up one morning to find I couldn’t hear out of my right ear. Long story short, this is a permanent situation. Got my first CI October 2017. Second one is being done April 13 2018. Jewel and Mary Featherston 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Featherston Posted April 3, 2018 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 3, 2018 Welcome, @Jackie Erickson and I'm so glad you're getting bilateral CIs given your hearing loss! Good luck a week from Friday, I'll be there with you (only in Minneapolis.....hopefully it will be done snowing by then!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
