MY RECENT AUDIOLOGIST APPOINTMENT

Today I had an appointment with my Audiologist to see if changing processing speeds would help with my music hearing. We tried higher speeds(up to 2400+) without any improvement. Finally, she said lets try a new strategy. This is all in Program 4 spot only which I had my old regular program that I never use. I went through another T&C determination with the usual beeps after which the new strategy was entered into my processor. When I tried it, the music DID sound better.....not as squeeky and distorted. I was told this is a Freedom super fast strategy. Whatever it is, to my surprise something finally worked.........not perfectly, but better. We agreed that I will try it for a while and see how it goes. I will only use Program 4 for music.

  • Hi Irv...Hope the music program will continue to help you. Keep us posted. I have friends who also have the Freedom and are not happy with their music choices. I would love to see this change. Deb
