    Esprit 3g Coil Cable Needed

    You could always try checking ebay. Otherwise, your only choice may be to upgrade to a newer processor. Or if you are in the states, you could also try asking on this Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/CIPS.USA

    CI and Migraines...

    I don't really have migraines. Do get the occasional headache, but it's mainly due to something else. When I do have headaches or the rare migraines, I do become extra sensitive to sounds, so I use the noise programs on my CIs, and sometimes even take the CI processors off for some relief. Once...

    What did you learn today?

    Nah newspaper let me go (they eliminated my position). Took about a month before I got hired at Walmart. More hours, better pay, and I'm actually kept busy so I'm much happier now.

    What did you learn today?

    I learned today that the Walmart I work for is doing a hotdog/burger BBQ on Saturday for associates for no associate accidents! Cool I guess. Also learned I'm pretty damn good at dropping canned goods! I don't know how many cans I've dropped today while stocking shelves... At least I didn't...

    I hate when I can't find my hearing Aide!!

    I haven't lost my implants yet. Hearing aids I have misplaced at times but I always found it (was always somewhere in my apartment). I read in a blog, a parent's daughter would stick her CIs on a magnetic board for safekeeping haha. I thought that was a good idea.

    What did you learn today?

    First time I had to change a tire, on my first car, I was at school. My interpreter, a tutor, and a male student all helped me with that one (and another tutor took some photos, thinking it was a good opportunity to show learning can happen at ANY time!). Second time, with my second car, my...

    Tinnitus and CI? Before and after

    I have "gotten rid" of the new tinnitus sounds that popped up/annoyed the heck out of me after the Christmas holidays... Cutting back on sodium intake certainly helped. Still have my usual tinnitus that I've had forever, but don't have the bothersome tapping/clacking sounds and repetition of...

    Is Cochlear Implant suitable to me?

    I did my dead ear first 3 years ago. Then got my right ear done this past October, willing to give up whatever little bit of hearing I had left in that ear to gain more. That was how I saw it. Completely opposite activation experiences with both ears (left "dead" ear heard nothing for about a...

    Activation - Med El Synchrony

    When my left ear was first activated, I didn't hear a thing. I felt the sounds in my head, but didn't hear. Took about a week before my brain started recognizing the Ci signals as "sound" and it took some time from there to make sense of what different sounds were. Took me a few months before...
