Guest guest Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Yayy congrats mate! It will be amazing you will love it I'm sure the audie will take care of everything and ensures it goes smOothly Activation day - how vertigo get worse for dizzy people Looking forward a bit to A-day (tomorrow). But a bit nervous too, given my history of vertigo. So wanted to take a pulse - for folks with history of vertigo - did activation make it worse? Like take a sick day worse .. .. which brings me to a good question - did anyone have to take time off from work after a-day at all?

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I had a bout of vertigo after the surgery but nothing after activation. I'm hoping you'll have smooth sailing.

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I had my surgery on a Friday and was back to work on Tuesday teaching (Monday was a holiday).  That first 24 hours after the surgery I had to watch my balance and had help to get around. After that it was fine.  However, 5 months later I had a vestibular evaluation as a prelude to having a 2nd implant and was found to have very little balance on the implanted ear and some loss on the other as well. Was it surgery or did I always have these problems particularly with congenital cochlear and vestibular malformations? You might have similar problems if you have a history of vertigo.  Best of luck!

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Congratulations! It's going to be so great when you get turned on, as long as you keep your expectations low to begin with. I've been activated three times and never had any dizziness, nauseau or anything of the sort. Good luck tomorrow! Geoff > > Looking forward a bit to A-day (tomorrow).
