I've taken some audiology classes and learned about BAHAs, this is a really interesting application of it! But if the hearing loss on your right side were to progress to a profound loss it would render the BAHA useless, right? Do you ever worry about that?

Also, did you use a conventional hearing aid in your right ear before the BAHA?

Was there any reason that the fluid in your middle ear wasn't detected by your first ENT, or were they just incompetent? Or did they just think it would drain on its own eventually? It seems crazy to me that an ENT wouldn't try harder to fix your hearing problems when they persisted for so long, especially when Eustachian tube issues are so common (I have some right now cause of the flu!) and PE tubes are a pretty easy way to solve your type of problem.
