I was able to do a little butt wiggle dancing to some outkast and sean paul during christmas eve, but when I shook my head, I almost fell into the Christmas tree.
Recovering better, gotta take it slow still. I am driving almost normal now-
Honking and running yellow lights.
Lots of snow, was able to shovel some snow the other day. Getting semi used to one sided hearing.
Sensory overload is not present as much as before, During the first post op 2 weeks, I was overwhelmed with not having hearing spreadto 50 50 on each side, and having to adjust to 100 % coming in one ear.
My brain is still re-wiring I guess.
Finished all my meds except Antivert-probably another 2 wks of that med.
Planning to start work in another week or two perhaps just 4days a week for about a month.
Will see.
Back to the benefits issue of the disability etc, of loosing life, a limb, an eyeball etc, My current coverage does not include hearing. But newer coverage starting Jan 1 2007 includes loosing hearing-100% and down to 50% Coverage. But there are exclusions…
the causes of War, parachuting, suicide attempt, mental illness, etc, well, SICKNESS and injury resulting from Surgery due to an ILLNESS, (TUMOR) Rules me out Too, so I am not uptight thinking I could’ve received money out of loosing hearing, because I do not qualify anyway.
I think the only way you would qualify is if somebody hacks off your ear including the cochlea, or you fall on a stick and jam it up your ear, not sure.
oh well.
HAPPY NEW YEAR AND CHRISTMAS
