I Stepped It Up A Notch!

This afternoon I bumped up my device to A 5, which, if I remember what Michelle told me, would mean next week I start program B! Technically I was supposed to wait til tomorrow to go up a level, but I am feeling like a rebel tonight! Lol
It doesn't really sound much different, just slightly louder. But I'm still having issues with the fluid in the ears which does put a damper on my hearing (ha, pun unintended!) I'm taking sudafed to hopefully clear it up but it doesn't seem to be doing the trick, which would mean steroids are next. Every couple years I get bad enough fluid build up in my ears that I require steroids to reduce the inflammation. Hopefully the fluid doesn't get so bad it causes feedback in my implanted ear! I just want a smooth forward transition with stepping up my device every week.
I do notice the TV is continually getting easier and easier to understand!
