I also noticed that the sound of “silent” when I take off my hearing aid and the CI processor off at night for bed is not as heavy or numbing like it was before. While wearing the CI implant I noticed alot more constant static like noises and I found out that they were noises from moving around in my clothes. I did not except that wearing jeans for example would have made that much noise and only when I am perfectly still is when I have silent from the CI. I am still in awe by the CI experience. Barely two months after activation and I find myself in some kind of parallel universe with a different auditory reality. The way I interact with people, the way I fell about myself is all changing due to the CI experience and the journey to the beyond.
