Guest guest Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 Hi All, This is my first post to this forum as I just joined last week. I have been HOH since age 3 due to a neck injury and worn HAs on both ears since age 7. I am now 43 and have noticed that my hearing has gotten worse over the past 5 years. This was expected as both of my parents have hearing loss that gotten worse over the years. I was evaluated for a CI at UCSF last month and have been scheduled for surgery on July 31st. I decided to do the implantation on my left ear which is the worse ear. I am able to use the phone (with more repeating requests) on my right ear. I am planning to continue to use my HA on my right ear. So this leads to my question: Do any of you who have a CI on one ear use a HA on the other ear? I haven't met anyone who does so wonder if there are any. What is it like for you? Regards, Sam Todd San Francisco, CA Evaluated: 4/4/03 Surgery: 7/31/03 Hookup: 8/28/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
