Hey, I had a CI moment this morning. I was laying on the table in the

chiropractic's office, there are two tables to a room. The vibrators stopped

on

the other table, and the timer peeped. That's the first time I think I've

heard it.

Hi all,

 

My disposable batteries have over 30 hours left.  A work colleague set by the

rechargeable which only took 2.25 hours from 8:45 AM to 11 AM this morning and

has 21 hours based on a preliminary mapping

 

Each program is progressively more powerful.  On the subway this evening  I hard

nothing on P2.  I turned my right hearing aid on and heard the roar of trains

and crowds.  I got a set on the next train and went up to P3.  The sound started

again.

 

The CI Moment is that New York  City subway cars have a chime through the

intercom  when the conductor closes doors.  On the second of three express stops

I heard it with my hearing aid off and processor on P3.  This is a moderately

high frequency sound.

 

On the express bus I heard just noise but a few second tum on of the hearing aid

indicated a low pitch roar of the bus motor.  And this continued for my ride

home.

 

I am at my home PC and except for a low sound fan I am hearing nothing.  But my

hearing aid indicates that there is nothing to hear.

 

I seem to be mapped for high frequency sound but I still cannot hear human

voice.  Traveling deaf in metropolitan New York City is a dangerous endeavor and

the deaf person has to remain alert to his/her environment.  However, this is

home for me and not a suburban street.

 

Any ideas?

Sheila,

 

My audiologist showed me an ear hook or ring.   I have four boxes of stuff and

some other stuff loose.  Sometimes I have to leave my apartment open for

maintenance so I feel safer leaving the rechargeable battery charger at the

office since  it only takes 2,25 hours charge.  I have to put the cochlear kit

away in a closet.  It could be all tossed out as trash.  I have to review what I

need at the moment.  Packages of mic covers can be stored away.

I am going to make some dinner and review Sound Way and Beyond.

Congratulations, .

Speaking of understanding the weather - Thunder is usually pretty faint for

me. 'Not sure what the frequency range is but it must be pretty low. It's

a little ironic. I can hear higher frequencies I hadn't heard for decades

and I've lost the lower ones. I prefer the new way, however. 'Don't really

need the really low ones.

Your hearing is pretty much like mine.  The tests yesterday I could hear the

audiologusts voice and new she was talking  and using sentences but could not

understand the words.  then there was mans lower voice using sentences and I

could not hear a thing.  hitgher pitch is what i hear and less of the lower

tones.

Only way I know it's Thundering is when my little ankle biter  jumps on my lap

trembling.

Have a great day!
