Guest guest Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Jerome-- I have had severe to profound hearing loss since birth and profound loss before I got my first CI in 2002 and I went bilateral in 2003 and I have not regretted a moment of it even though my journey has been very bumpy and just starting to smooth out. Bilateral CIs give me a fuller sound, directional hearing which I need for my job ( I work in a nursing home). I only speak for myself. Everyone's decison on whether to get a CI bilateral or not is very personal and well worth it. It takes a lot of work and energy.... It is not a overnight success. -- Snoopy bilateral RI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Do both ears sound the same? Or different? I emailed one implantee from hearingcompanions.com and she said it's not but it gives her full sounding. Regards/ Jerome Re: On bilaterals... VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY HAPPY TO HAVE THE BILATERALS!!!!

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 I feel very fortunate to have some sense of bilateral hearing because I have those good bass sonds in my unimplanted ear. So in my case my ears sound totally different and it is not a problem. Our brains meld everything together eventually.
