G’Day.
I’m finally back on the journey to potentially be fitted CI(s) from a long avoidance of nearly 10 year (this is my third attempt). You have all be an immense help in calming some of my anxieties, most of which is about hearing quality with what left of my hearing and what to do with this thing on my head with my motorcycle helmet (but that’s a minor issue).
My main concern with doing the surgery in my Inner-Ear Otosclerosis. With the massive buildup of bone calcium inside the cochlear (as seen from my last MRI), I’m doubting they can get the probe in there, and them there is the 50% nerve die-off due to the cochlear inability to feed audio signals to the nerves.
I have done my pre appointment with their Audi and done all the pre hearing tests, so they say we might start with the right ear.
I am booked in to see the ENT in Launceston on the 16th June. So we will see what she has to say. from a long avoidance of nearly 10 year (this is my third attempt).
