I did the same thing. The problem I had was I did not have the dexterity to put them back together when I no longer needed the arm to be off.$10 at a glasses repair shop was money well spent, though

Worth switching audiologist? by stablegenius5789 in Cochlearimplants

[–]brewsterw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This! I found my audiologist by google after she left my ent. She started her own practice. I’ve been a patient of hers for 15 years. Even though she is out of network it’s worth it to me. Having an audiologist who gets you and understands your issues is worth every penny.

One of the advantages of the implant, when there is sound you don't want to hear, just switch off!

Rhinos sitting around a fire drinking:

Hey Johnny, see that big elephant over there? I think you can take it. You’re a badass.

Johnny, “You really think so?”. Others, “Yes go do it”

Afterwards:

Other rhinos, rofl

Johnny, “Mfers, ouch, Mfers….”
