I have found a toy on a Macbook: virtual piano! It is something just for me. I am sitting without my hearig aid on (because of the earlobe irritation) and playing like a child who sneaked to the room where the piano is. It is fascinating. I sometimes get an impression that my scale of sounds got reversed: the high sounds are low for me, and the low ones are higher. I have an idea why. At the moment, with my CI I hear the high sounds much better than the low ones. With the hearing aids, though, if I heard something loud and clear, it was low.
I have to ask someone to test me for relative sound frequency some time.
Maybe this “frequency reversal” is the cause of my difficulties with synchronizing the sounds from the hearing aids and the CI, this echo I wrote about? I have no idea. Just a hypothesis.
After several minutes of playing the virtual piano in the range I hear best with my CI I think that the sounds seem to be returning to their right places. I can hear/feel the sounds in the lower range a bit, but they are less clear.
Good hearing exercise.
There is a frequency range I can hear bilaterally now. I have missed it for over two months. As I have already mentioned, my hearing in the left ear isn’t worse than before the surgery, but I don’t wear the hearing aid there anyway. There is no place for it with the processor on, and I wear the latter all the time.
