Guest guest Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 Hi I had been waiting to hear from you.It will get better...I am thinking of you and praying!! Love Dora Activation-Bilateral Hello all I am sorry for not emailing the day I got activated on Monday, June 9. Anyway, I was activated and the sounds are very screechy and sounds like Mickey Mouse on my newly implanted ear. I have not been feeling so well since it has been making me drowsy since my brain has to adjust with this new implanted ear. I am hearing things but don't like the sound of it like my other ear. I called my audie about it and she said it takes time. It is the stimulation. Everyone reacts differently. I will be going back for mapping next Tuesday and hopefully I will like the sound better. I am trying not to be discouraged at this point. It will get better as the days go by. Thank you for understanding and I will post it again later to see if I am feeling better. in Florida Bilateral 5/13/03 Nucleus Activated 6/9/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 , I hope you are feeling better very soon. When my right side was activated, the sound was identical to the first hook up. I commented on that when I posted stating the surprise this was to me. It does pass though and much faster than the first one. Something to keep in mind - turn both implants down because there is so much more sound to process. Maybe your T's and C's need adjusting. Did you come home with a couple of different maps to try over the one week period on your/or a loaner BWP? Alice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
