Marion nancy Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 Is a norm to need frequent mappings other than regular ones. Cannot seem to get it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted February 12, 2019 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 What is going on @Marion nancy? How many months ago were you activated? My right and left CIs required a different number of MAPpings to get things sounding great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Jewel Posted February 12, 2019 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 @Marion nancy What do you regard as frequent vs regular? I had three mappings the first month of activation and then one mapping monthly thereafter. After this week, I should be going every 6 months but I can understand why someone would want more frequent tweaks than having to wait 6 months.

After a week I seem to need more maxed on the fine tuner. Embarrassing to keep going in weekly 2 minutes ago, Jewel said: @Marion nancy What do you regard as frequent vs regular?

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted February 12, 2019 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 @Marion nancy Every CI center handles things differently. My audiologist followed this schedule with me... Activation (left with 4 programs to work through during the first week...each one louder) One week later (left with 4 programs to work through over the next month) one month later one month later one month later (Then I added an extra MAPping several weeks later to tweak things a bit.) three months later Then we began to have appts for my other side.

pdk Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 Since switchon 3rd march I have had 5 mappings. From third session each improved my hearing. However practice helps. I have listened to 2 audio books and have the radio on all the time. If you are not happy, go for another session. Good luck Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
