HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted June 22, 2015 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Ivana, I met somebody today that has a BAHA. Funny thing is, I have known this gentleman for almost a year and didn't know it. I saw him today at work and noticed the post. I asked him about it as I never noticed it before. He either has a hat on or keeps his hair a little longer. He explained that he had some major issues with meniers and had a lot of problems with hearing. They thought the BAHA was best so went with that. His vestibular system went south, something happened to the semicircular canals. After that, he started gaining hearing back. Now he doesn't wear it but has not had the post removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Ivana Marinac Posted June 26, 2015 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Hi Adam - Menier is unpredictable: vestibular and hearing system are floating. I can't explain why he got BAHA - perhaps if his hearing loss is more unilateral but hearing definitely oscilate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted June 27, 2015 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 I thought that was odd. And now he doesn't use it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Ivana Marinac Posted June 27, 2015 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Can"t explain it at all - he does not need it or just don't use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Ivana Marinac Posted July 1, 2015 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Although, one day possibly he will need it but you can't say with Meniere - it's sooo unpredictable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
