Well, I had my first CI yesterday in right ear. So far only minor discomfort. Did not and so far have not needed any pain meds. Did not keep me in over night. Only in hospital about 6 hours and all seems to have gone well. I did notice that I was hearing a lot of ??? noise in implanted ear? well not sure hearing is correct word but brain interpreted it that way. When I lay down noise went away and the when I sat up it would come back getting louder the longer I sat. I think it is due or was due to swelling. This morning still there but not nearly so loud, either I'm getting acustomed to it or it has subsided. I am amazed that it is hardly noticable with exception of loss of some hair in that area. Of course it is not active yet and obviously will be noticable when connected up. Now I get to wait a month or so until it gets activated. Going to be interesting to see what happens. I have Phonak in left ear so still hear but comprehension is not to swift.Rampratt
