Kawano-san was professional and skilled but language, Japanese medical system and post operative therapy meant London is better for me.
Many thanks to Miwa-san for her insight to the CI industry in Japan.
Meeting with Professor Saeed. 107 Harley St, London.
Very, very comfortable to be under his care.
Cochlear scarring is advancing. He wants to operate asap. Can only tell for certain if an implant is possible by trying. Putting his team together and plans to operate within two weeks. He first uses a dummy implant to see possible depth of insertion. Med El offer a half size implant, where necessary - clearly half the electrodes. AB have just one size. Cochlear not in play after recall. Meeting his "scientist" on Monday as part of pre-op preparation.
Re balance and eye bobbing.
Doctor advised treadmill work - just keep practicing. Have been doing hours of street walking, with a stick and holding onto Ulrica (shopping) trying to reset balance and focus. Week to week seeing small improvements. There is a chance that the operation knocks the balance out further.
