Surgery
As many of you know i was having a routine surgery done Wednesday. To let you all know that it went better than expected. When i got there i was asked by my doctor if he could do a different procedure. This is the procedure that is done to meniere's patients that are older. There is a 20 percent chance i would lose all my hearing in one or both ears. I agreed. Not being able to do it when i was younger because the percentage chance was 80 percent, i thought .. why not? Altho it does help me hear a little better, i still cannot hear much without my headphones or a hearing aid that is so uncomfortable. This is because much damage was done when i was younger. But it should take away all side affects from the disease itself because it allows the fluid to drain out all of the time. So i realized today that my setting on my headphones, wich are made by a medical company, needed to be lowered from -6 to -13. A improvement that even my doctor was not expecting, but hoped for. My hearing is in Flux all the time. Today i had 3 minutes where if i listened close, i could hear my roomate talking on the phone. And i was able to hear my sister's voice without a device for the first time in 12 years. Of course i cried! lol. Anyway i will keep everyone updated.
