Works for me

Generally, the first six months after receiving CIs involve many and frequent audiologist appointments.  But by May of last year I was past that stage and was planning to go in and have an appointment every six months. Last time I actually regretted doing the re-mapping - it had been sounding really good, and I knew that each time we change the mapping it takes my brain a long time to get that back.  In fact, I'm just now getting back to the same sound quality that I had last October before we did the new mapping. So I had been planning to ask my audiologist not to re-map.  Usually she checks the electrode function and we discuss how things are going, but basically the mapping is the primary function of the visit.  But I was going to go in, make sure everything else is okay, and then ask her not to re-map, which I know is okay because we talked about it last time. But my appointment was for next Tuesday.  I don't know if the state will be lifting the shelter in place requ
