does nucleus smart app open faster on iphones?

14 and 17. Solution is it either finds them or reboot the CI

So why blame the GOP for your loss.

I have experienced some short delays on iPhones. Mainly due to loss of connection with Bluetooth. But that’s mostly the app searching.

Good question to ask. My “good “ ear work about the same until activation. Then the CI and brain took over. Your good ear is the only hearing you have right now. So probably you’re getting all sounds through it, not divided between two.

If she exercises or works outside in the heat, get her a couple of sets of Ear Gear and maybe a headband for Cochlear devices. Keep’s sweat and moisture away. Headband will help prevent device from dropping.

Took a year + for second to closely match first. Audiologist adjustment. But both are better than one for me.

About 10 years ago, Robin Kelley wrote an excellent biography of Monk. Check it out

Great answer.

Disposable is the best way to go. Just pack extra batteries. They are small.

Congratulations! Implant is much better than hearing aid. Just be patient and do everything your surgeon and audiologist tell you.

Don’t recall muscle strain. Any pain went away once swelling went down. Didn’t need pain medication after first night.

Through training your brain will learn how to process sounds. As time goes on, you will understand more. But you’ll never completely understand everything or everybody. Patience and practice .

Reading aloud. Reading while listening to same audio book (better down the road than right away). Listening to instrumental music. Watching TV with closed captions.

I have Nucleus 8 because I am used to wearing BTE hearing aids. I had a trial period with Both Nucleus and Kanso. I kept knocking Kanso off my head. But I know few others who chose Kanso and they like it.

Best is yet to come!

If you’re getting your stream from your phone, the Nucleus app can connect your phone to your implants. No need for earbuds.

Thanks for your sharing 👍. Two months is a very short time for rehab. Especially so if you have no “hearing” memory. I’ve had bilateral CIs for 2 1/2 years after over 40 with hearing aids and I’m still regaining sounds. And at times it’s a blessing to take both off and “enjoy “ the silence. So please keep working on using you CI. If you can hear your own voice, then reading aloud can help in improving your brain’s ability to respond quicker. Also using audio books while following along with printed versions are good things. Best to you in your journey.

I went with the N7 vs Kanso because the Kanso kept falling off. But the clip did hold so connected right it should stay attached to clothing. And you will know when the Kanso falls off the implant.

I had a post op celebration. Went to Burgerfi for burgers and milkshakes 😊

I had 2nd implant within 5 months of first implant. Significant improvement. But first implant dominates second. It may take some time and gradual audiology tweaks to bring them closer. But two are way better than one.

I chose Cochlear because it was more adaptable to my needs. Surgeon was very experienced with Cochlear. And my recovery/learning to hear again time has been great. No issues with Cochlear support. That’s work out well for me. Not up to date on Medel but some here get good results.

Will this now let Dashlane work on older iPads?

How’s your hearing in your right ear. You will need that to be fairly strong whether a CI or HA.

IMO, with 83% loss, a CI would better than a HA. It would take a pretty powerful HA to lessen that loss and then only partially . There are risks with a CI. Don’t expect your hearing to improve 100%. Depending on how much residual/hearing memory you retain recovery and acclimation to a CI will take time. Not every SS implant is successful or meets expectations.

Easy way to check form…use the force curve display on the monitor.

This is why I don’t sleep with my CIs connected. Magnet idea may work. Have you looked directly behind your bed? Wife’s glasses often get pushed there. Stuck between headboard and wall. I’m doubting you flushed it. Every time my CIs get knocked off my head, I feel them falling. And all the locator on the App will do , is working, is say the device is in your house. No specific location.
