My ENT says the SoundBite hearing system by Sonitus Medical will be dispensed to the public at end of year.I'm still not sure I'll get it.I guess I'll try it but maybe I can get by without it,I dunno know.It would certainly help because I have moderate to severe hearing loss in my left ear.I'm single sided deaf too.I also don't know how expensive it will be and may just decide to forgo getting it or maybe just wait awhile and read about how others are hearing with it.
