Sounds like you are doing great! It'll get better and better! Wait until you turn to someone who tries to get your attention and you have your CI's off b/c you needed to concentrate, were tired, or etc.! "Oops! Sorry... could you repeat that? I was turned OFF!" Woot! Sounds like you are doing great! It’ll get better and better!

It seems that it changes a lot in the first year. I am sooo relieved that it's not as aggravating as you though it would be. We really don't know what to expect. I am so glad. There's so much to learn with that. Do people sound like they are "heliumized"? Oh, you said it was like they were masking/distorting their voices for "ransom". LOL. I'm so glad. I know what you mean about not being sure if you would recognize a song if you didn't know what it was. I would never have been a good contestant on Name That Tune. I can't recognize beats with a certain song. You are on your way. Happy, happy CI journey...HUGS Like fingerprints and snowflakes, everyone has a different map.

I am so excited for you. I understand what you mean by the what is uncomfortable with beeps. It gets easier. Right now is an important time to find your program. I started Hi-Res S, but Hi-Res P sounds better to me. Just remember there are so many different types of programs, find what works for you. It gets better and better. It is fantastic!!!!!
