Does anyone have this type of off balance feeling?

I am 73, was implanted in December on one side, and have written a whole FB blog about the experience. It will walk you through the background to my hearing loss, the assessments, the prep for the op, the op itself, the recovery and rehabilitation. Three months post op I stopped writing the blog because with both ears, no background noise I was hearing at 98% up from the 20s. You can look on FB for From Hearing to Deafness and Back or you can email me at pennyriley at the most common email you can think off. Not sure I can give an address on here or not. I will look for an email from you and can just send you the whole document if you respond.

My email is Dave.shaw4651@gmail.com.
My concerns are as follows:
How noticeable are the CI’s
Do you have a recommendation as to which one to get since there are so many
Have you heard about adding accessories that enable you to swim with them in a pool?
How long does it take after the operation before your hearing comes back?
We’re you able to function with hearing aids before you made the decision to get CI’s
It is a big step and they are starting to make headway on naturally restoring peoples hearing. I would imagine once you decide to go with CI’s those natural solutions would not be available to me.
You have my email address and I look forward to hearing from you.
