Hah, seems like I remember once reading a topic on here that was more on the 'funny' side of SSD. It was people just sharing some stories that may 'sound' a bit funny, but where only those of us in the same condition would understand. Anyone else remember those posts??
I happen to hear a woodpecker going crazy the other day. So I stepped outside to try and see where it was coming from. I swear I was walking around like a lost alien looking up for my home in the sky, but couldn't figure it out. I was walking round & round on our property. I could hear it, but I think it was up high in a tree and that made it even worse for me. A week before that my dog took off. I could here his tags clanging around in the woods, somewhere, but couldn't figure out where. Didn't even have a clue which way to head to start looking for him. Luckily my hubby was pulling in and was able to find the dog right away (I honestly was looking in the wrong direction) Grr.
NOW, as for tinnitus & the BAHA. Well, I posted on facebook about a year ago and got replies where for a few it DID help!! I asked after being told BY a Cochlear Rep (when I was trying to get a BAHA, but insurance keeps denying) that YES a few have commented that a BAHA does help with their tinnitus. Also, like said in a post above there is currently a new study for those in regards to tinnitus and BAHA use. I wish I could speak from experience of my own, but no luck (darn insurance!!)
