Carolmarie 53 Report post Posted June 8 I saw my surgeon yesterday for follow up i asked why the med-el was in the surgery with me he said there are many new staff members at the headquarters and they asked if they could come and see what the surgery was like no one passed out i told him I feel like a very new person no more dizziness or poor balance he explains why my right ear was leaking and he fitted it i thought it was from the left ear surgery last year now I am happy i told him I alway make it a challenge for him and I get my money worth Med-el was very impressed with him I how he was able to quickly solve any problem during surgery now with the measles being around there are more deaf children so more implants will be done Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
