Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Hi jackie You asked a very interesting question. My friend ,here in mn,is going through the same thing as you Jackie.It was the suture keeping her receiver in place that broke through her skin.She had surgery done in her DR's office to remove it.Since then the sound with her processor has not been good..had X-rays and it shows that some of her electrodes are outside her cochlea.She will probably have reimplantation in the spring.Her CI is about 14 yrs.Old. I certainly would not let a reg Dr touch anymore.....I am surprised that your Audiologist did not send you to your surgeon right away.It is very possible that your sutures have broken.I would get to your surgeon as fast as you can. I am sure my friend would like to hear from you..I will Email her and ask her if it is OK to give you her Email address. Love Dora Dora Weber Nucleus Volunteer Advocate dora_weber@...
