MY 6 MONTH TESTING
Yesterday I saw my Audie for my 6 month testing. She gave me 4 tests in the "Torture Chamber" as follows: 1. Sounds - buzzes, beeps, etc. 2. She called out words and I repeated them 3. A recorded male voice called out sentences which I repeated. 4. A recorded male voice called out words which I repeated. While I don't remember the exact score for each one, they ranged from 75% to 87%. Considering these scores were 0% before my CI, my Audie thought I did great! Personally, I would have wanted to do better, but my ability to hear in so many ways real world-wise is sufficient consolation. The Audie also tweaked my regular program to cut down on the echo effect, and gave me 2 additional programs to try for music(I told her it still sounded very bad).
