Lori Martin Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 Hi I'm hoping someone out there can answer a question of mine. Was wondering how long did each individual have to wait upon the Cochlear implant process? I believe I am at the best I can be by going into this. It's been one year and two months for I had other complications that had arised. But doing better with all! Thanks Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted April 28, 2019 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 @Lori Martin I completed all of the steps between December 2014-February 2015 and had my first CI surgery in February. So 2 months between starting the process and the surgery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted April 28, 2019 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 Until the CI team clears you for the implant, the surgery will not be scheduled. Have you asked your CI team what is needed to be cleared for surgery? I hope it happens soon for you. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
