Regarding the Oticon More I found them less effective than the advertisement. My audiologist ordered them for me and subsequently moved away. The next audiologist thought I'd do better with the Phonak Paradise so she ordered them. I tried both the More and Paradise and found that neither lived up the the advertisements for me. Of course we are all different and yours experience may well be different.
After trying the More and Paradise I finally decided to keep the More and return the Paradise. It was a very difficult choice.

Thanks for your input, @arrowshooter. I suspect my experience will be similar to yours. I know that people are finding the More to be an improvement over the Opn 1 HAs but with my loss it will probably not be enough of a difference.
Thank you for relaying your experience, @billchitwood. If I was much closer to Mayo I would go there. I believe that Mayo and Johns Hopkins are the two best in the country, but Mass Eye and Ear is not too far behind.
It sounds as if I should find out which devices are prescribed at whichever of the two I choose to go and then do my research.
When you say you were "in and out for the CT", what exactly are you referring to. At first I thought you meant for them to attach the device to the magnet but then I see you have just scheduled the surgery. What were the two appointments in the same day set to accomplish?
Your question about your hearing between the surgery and the activation is one that I have been wondering about too. It's looking as if during that time you must be deaf in that ear.
