I decided to put CI back on and put it on 2 for volume and sensitivity yesterday so far no pain or any problems only slight discomfort on incision from the weight of processor thats all so I increased to 5 for both, so far, so good. Look like I only needed an break thats all. I still need new mapping some part of speech sound muffled and I cant hear fire alarm again. so I'll call to makes mapping appointment.
thanks for sending good thoughts for me :-)

Hey again. Just catching up on reading your posts. The pain that you went through with your CI is not unfamiliar. When my CI failed a few years ago, I got a newer technology CI, and I went through similar pains that you went through. Certain sounds sounded awful, and I had some headaches. I just lowered the volume and the sensitivity, and it helped greatly. Overtime, I was able to increase the sensitivity and the volume as I got used to the new sounds.
Give yourself some time to understand the sounds. Nothing happens overnight. Also, the progress of hearing with a CI varies from person to person and so, I wouldn't compare your experiences with someone else's. From looking at your tests results from last May, I have to say that the results are great for three months post-activation! So, like I said, just be patient and continue to wear your CI when you can.
