Hi Stephany , yes i had by-cross for 5 years but it made me irritated and all too crispy , helped a bit but i was not happy , I do have good hearing in my right side i do ok with nothing in both ears but after a day i feel muffled , I am scheduled with a good ENT to do a more accurate hearing test and then he will recommend some , but honestly i am hesitating to put the OSIA and feel a bump on my head not sure if I will be ok with that . Hearing is a very difficult condition as you may know and even the audiologist nor the ENT can really feel or understand us .. lol but will see what happens next week , I am also hoping they will come up with a smaller and thin OSIA soon . I thank you so much for responding to me and taking your time to do so , you are a kind person and so am I . talk soon
