Hila Posted October 19, 2018 Report Share Posted October 19, 2018 Welcome @Esteban Thanks for sharing your story. Wishing you best of luck on activation @Margothanks for the response as well. I use Sonnet primarily and my Audi recommends them because of dual mic feature and directionality. I'm doing really well currently with my sonnet so I can't complain. Best of luck to you as well. I am looking forward to mine Esteban 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the audiologist said the Rondo2 was not yet available to them(perhaps due to government health insurance rules) so strongly recommended the Sonnet as having more advanced features. I'm looking forward to my activation date which has been moved up to October 29. Same at sunnybrooke. Scitation Nov 1 and rondo2 not ready. Therfore sonnet eas .

Daniel the Stranger Posted October 24, 2018 Report Share Posted October 24, 2018 @Nikki I'm fine, I came back to work last week on Wednesday just after a week of the surgery. No pain, tinnitus from time to time and I'm now sleeping on my new implanted ear. This time swelling was much less than the first time. I hope you feel better soon.

Thank you Daniel I've been doing fantastic Went back to work last week My first CI surgery was pretty traumatic and results weren't good. then I had revision on that side and the recovery was easier and results are fabulous My co workers encouraged me to take it easy and I did for the revision This time I didn't listen to them and they got me back before they were ready to My bad I have a little anxiety about the array moving in my cochlea due to activity/sneezing/ excreting myself etc Not even sure if this fear justified or not I just want to fast forward to next week so I can face some facts Daniel the Stranger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Featherston Posted October 25, 2018 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 @Nikki I'm just fine, thanks! My implant site only hurts when I press on it. The incision's a little tender, particularly when I pick at the sutures (heh). But all in all, not much pain, I'm sleeping well and have been back at work since Monday. Really looking forward to a week from tomorrow! Jewel and Hila 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel the Stranger Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 @Nikki I wouldn't worry too much. I had the post-op checkup last week and I asked my doctor about sneezing and blowing my nose as I did both of them. I'm used to blowing my nose after showering so after surgery I still cointunued to do this but much softer. Still my ears popped up, so it got me worried. Doctor said no problem, that everything was ok. So I pass this on to you so you can relax before activation Hila 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
