Hi everyone,

Thanks again for the congrats! And Darin, we did have surgery the same day! Have you got updates about your progress in a thread somewhere? I am going well, better day by day. Just had my first post op shower so I feel almost human again! Trying to do my balance exercises everyday but I just get so tired, even after having a shower I needed a nap. I am begining to cope with the deafness but I still havent adjusted to the tinnitus, so I am just trying to find things to make me smile and remind myself just how wonderful it is to be alive after such huge surgery, even if it is all a bit spinny and noisey!

Hi Micky!

I went to Professor Kaye and Dr Briggs. I shopped around ALOT and ALLLLLL my research told me these guys are the BEST. People come from all over the world to see them, I wouldn't go with anyone else. And their post op care has been second to none! Any questions just message me...
