slytinker said:I had my surgery yesterday under local anesthesia. I could have gone with general, but I preferred knowing exactly what was going on. It’s not exactly pleasant while they work—kind of like being a lab rat under sedation; even if it doesn't hurt, having someone poking around in your head is unsettling. There was some pain yesterday, so I needed a painkiller, but I'm feeling alright today. My hearing isn't back to normal yet, but the doctor said we'll see how it settles once things heal up over the next few days. I still have the cotton and a bandage in my ear. No dizziness or anything like that, though...

Hey,
how are you holding up, and where did you have the procedure done?

That’s great news. Thanks for getting back to me. I’ve got surgery coming up in about a month, so hopefully I’ll have the same luck. 😉)
Just wondering, where did you have yours done?

Hey,
Could anyone who’s gone through surgery share what their recovery was actually like?
Specifically, did you deal with dizziness, and if so, how long did that last?
Best,
