Since the last tuning session I've found there is a constant droning noise in the background when I have the implant on. It's very tiring. The magnet starts to hurt after a while too (the information is sent from the external sound processor I wear behind my ear to the internal components via a magnet under my skin). Immediately after taking the sound processor and magnet off to have a break I feel nauseous for a minute then it passes, it's a funny reaction.
The drone is like a siren, waaawaaawaaa, or static, like noises in my head as it's constant, like brouhaha perhaps. One explanation I can think of is since the volume's been increased, more sound information is being picked up by the sound processor but it's not received cleanly by my brain, and also a hearing person's brain will shut out the background noises whereas mine has not learnt to do that. The next tuning session tomorrow morning.
