Hi Julie, I've just been reading your CI process/experience and it's wonderful. I love your humor. I think laughter is some of the best medicine! I am scheduled for CI surgery at Mayo in Rochester in early June, so your detailed experiences are so helpful.
I believe I have some nerve damage on the right side of my face (mild but that area feels different than the left side of my face). You mention the facial nerve monitoring and some of the issues from that. Did all of that resolve for you?
It's also interesting to read about your activation and experience at Mayo. All that sounds great with Mayo taking good care of everything. One interesting difference is that I should get activated the day after surgery and then have another audi appointment the next day for tweeking before I head home.
I'm scared and exited!
