Hello all,

Well, I do love being on forums, which is , Nucleus22CI, one

other forum, and Cochlear Nucleus forum (which is from <A

HREF= " www.cochlear.com " >www.cochlear.com</A> so

you won't confuse 'who is that?' LOL)and it does make me learn about CI alot,

but hal, I think you was too late because I already done the science fair

project last month and there will be no sciecne fair in high school next

year, dang. I don't know why! =-P I think that the topic is good and I wished

that I could add to the project, but too late. =-( But thanks, anyway! =-\

Hal, That is good news, indeed! You don't realize that there are plenty of

us out there who had to struggle for a long time to get to a point like

this. So my friend, patience, patience & more patience.

Hal,

How exciting to hear you are now finding yourself enjoying the

experience of dining out in small groups! :-)

Mmmmm....breakfast burritos...yummy! My biological mother (we met

for first time in 1997) lives in Pecos, NM & I have always enjoyed

the zesty food of New Mexico each visit.

Thanks Hal! I had a great time. I remember that I didn't talked a lot last

time. It was my first day of hook-up and my brain was screwing up trying to

listen. This time, I'm glad that I'm making progess.

I also had my mouth widely grinned about Alice's progress after bilateral

hook-up. She's hearing much better than before. Last time, she kept telling us

to repeat what we're saying. Now, she's acting like a normal

hearing person.

That's great for you to listen with your wife in noisy resturant! and

I had same thing in noisy resturant in Dallas and we were playing around with

our processors, but no success. Now you told me about it, so

we're waiting for that to happen.

Thanks Alice for the wonderful lasagna! Hopefully, we'll do that again on my

next trip. Should we call it, " Greg's BTE Day! "

Hi! I'm the guy who mentioned the finger cots. I hesitate to advise

you on poking holes in them as I am not sure what to tell you. I

poked holes in mine, but only to get the ear mold tube through. That

isn't affected by sweat. I guess you will have to experiment some and

see what works and what does not. I have sometimes heard crackles

from the things moving against the microphone but it didn't bother

me. I'd rather have my hearing aids working with crackles than

shorted-out from persperation!

You COULD leave the cots on while you are being active, and take them

off your instrument after you've showered and dried your hair That

would be half a solution. Once I get further into the candiadcy

process, I'll get to look at the various brands and models of CIs and

be better able to advise on this.

Hi Kathleen

I had both hips replaced in 2001. Staples came out about 12 days after each surgery and I don't recall any drainage. Maybe this warrants a call to the doctor.

I would recommend that you definately contact your surgeon. Watch the area, keep it clean and dry. Watch for any signs of infection, ..elevated temperature, feeling flu like, achy, etc. Contact your doc first thing in the morning.

Hi!I am new to the group - 22 days post op from a THR at age 50. I had my surgery at Hospital for Special Surgery in NY. Today, I have some drainage from the incision - pink fluid - for the first time that I am aware of. Does anybody know if this is something to be concerned about? Kathleen

WOW!

I'm 19 days Post op and the same thing happen to me today!

WEird!

Ok I called I paged the doctor this morning and I have to go in

tomorrow to have the staples removed (only one day early).

He said the staples can cause irritation after the wound heals and

that is the reason for the drainage, they will remove staples and

place me on a antibotic for good measure.

CALL DOCTOR!

I have had several ops, including a Hip replacement and can't

remember getting a pink discharge.

I would advise you to either go and visit your doctor, or ring your

consultant. It may well be nothing but it never hurts to get it

checked, because if it serious (fingers crossed its not) the sooner

they know about the sooner they can fix it.

Good Luck

This one's a hoax. Always check with one of the big anti-virus companies (www.symantec.com, www.mcafee.com, etc.) before mailing out these "warnings."

Thanks!

Hal !! Happy anniversary. What a way to celebrate it.

I can't imagine a better way than to go back to

school after a nice hot summer vacation and sit

listening to a boring meeting for three hours.

<smile>

Congratulations on your CI moment. I know it wasn't

great to get back to school but isn't it amazing to

see the difference a year has made?

Hi MistyEyed59,

You have definitely come to the right place. Just read all the messages from

the new CPhT's who are receiving their certificates in the mail daily.

Have you taken the exam once already? What specific areas are concerning you

right now? Having to study " everything " all at once is definitely

overwhelming. Pick one or two topics at time that you don't understand. Ask as

many

questions as you need to. The only dumb question is the one that isn't asked.

And as my chemistry professor like to tell us " It's the squeaky wheel that

gets the grease. "

Everyone one here is more than generous with their time and area-specific

knowledge of pharmacy.

Good luck and welcome!!

Lynch-Brunozzi, CPhT

I am currently working with Walgreens in the pharmacy.

Just received my registration from the state of SC. So I am now able to get

my hands into more action.

The Hospital Math really seems to be my biggest problem. I know practice

makes perfect and I am working on it daily. I did purchase a CD to help also.

Pharmacy Technician is the study guide book endorsed by the APA

Basic Pharmacy and Pharmacology, along with the work book.

Thanks so very much for the words of encouragement. This is the first job I

have had in years that I am actually excited to have.

Have been reading the previous post and now know most feel overwhelmed at

first. So, its onwards and upwards for me. This certification test won't get

me.

I will achieve the skills and pass it on the first attempt with you guy's

help and a lot of will power and studying on my part.

Thanks

Dear Mistieyed!

You can try Try Donna from S.C at itsmedwhee2@...

Which is itsmedwhee2cs (DOT) com (no space between the period or dot

or . and the " com " )

She has recently posted that she passed.

You are not alone. First you should download or print all that I sent

you. And Keep it on file. They are also in the file section but they

are the most important ones.

You should try to study out of your books. Which ones did you get?

Then when you have a question post it here. But I would give it a try

first.

Are you currently working as a tech or trainnee or are you in school

or are you doing this with out any previous exp or info?

You will need to study every day and be patient. Learning is a

process built on a foundation of baby steps.

Go through the Tutorials and the archived mesagesof discussion

tutorials.

What area are you weak in?

Be sure to take the practice exam AFTER you have studied a bit and

still have time to study allthat you missed onthe practice exam at

the PTCB site www.ptcb.org

I hope this helped you. This site has great success helping people

with all types of a background: experienced, schooled, OJT training,

in OJT and NO experience at all etc. I KNOW with perseverence you

will make it!

I will be right here for you!

Dear Mistieyed,

Please be sure to go back and read the recent emails from those who

have recently posted about their passing. You will see that they all

come from different backgrounds from no exp to very experienced.

This should be a positive for you that you have made the right

decision by joining this group.

Good Luck,
