Any recommendations - significant loss

Yes I had to have both MRI & CT prior to CI. Both were perfectly normal.

It been over 7 decades since I’ve heard high frequencies. Bimodaly my hearing is excellent, the risks of getting only a fair result from having a L CI is high. To me at my age it’s not worth the risk. I’d rather have the excellent hearing I have being bimodal than poor hearing going bilateral.

Alright. I think it is important that you feel comfortable with your decision.

I have inserted screenshots above because I noticed strong doubts and beliefs in ENTs community about implanting long-unstimulated ears. Perhaps unnecessarily; time and science will tell.

There is also promontory test, which is a one-time probe of electrical stimulation of the cochlea and potentially may predict the outcomes.

However, I haven’t read much about it; there may be limitations to this test that make final decision-making difficult.

Still pending an appt with the specialist (my issue; holidays have been busy). But a question for this group.
I just finished an updated hearing test (no change) with my Costco aid; moved to higher power receiver using one of my custom molds that could accommodate the size. She spent a lot of time with REM so that it appeared perfect. That said, in a quiet setting like my car if I block my good/right ear I can hear and understand everything said on the radio - BUT - it is at a lower volume than what I hear at the right. If I ask for another appt to raise volume would that cause issues with the rest of the settings? Any reason that I wouldn’t/couldn’t or shouldn’t ask for that.
Also considering purchasing a Noahlink and looking for the Genie software to potentially fiddle with my Oticon More1 aid; and even look at purchasing a used Oticon Real1 as an upgrade to my More (at a price I can afford). Unfortunately no one in my area appears to be open to adjusting aids not sold by them.

No reason not to turn it up. How does it sound when you turn it up manually?
