Hi Guys,
I have a 30mm AN and I'm probably going to get told that an op is the only way forward (not had consultation yet). It is not pressing on the brain stem but I've lost my hearing for the last 7 years whilst living in France because of it.
(I did detail this on another post).
I just wanted to start a new post here to get everybody's comments and how they have been helped with their hearing being attempted to be 'restored' post-op. I've kind of accepted now that I have complete hearing loss in my right ear. But I was hoping for some light at the end of the tunnel for something that could 'restore' some kind of hearing in it.
So, the options (for those who'd unfortunately lost hearing either before the op or because of the op) :
a) cochlear implant? - or is this not possible as the eardrum also needs repair.
b) bone structure conductance via a hearing aid
c) wireless hearing aid (good ear does the hearing - whilst your bad ear transmits sounds to it via a device).
Any other options?
Probably got the tech wrong so far. So correct me if I'm wrong.
Will be joining BANA. Is this the sort of thing discussed on there?
Thanks.
Russ.
