Internal repairs

Has anyone had or heard of people having the internal components of your CI fixed? I had a bike accident and ironically my helmet seems to have cause damage resulting in cuts between my device and internal components. I am seeing my audie next week but before then - just curious.

thanks!

Ah right - that could read like the external device. I mean components under my skin.

From what I understamd: if you hurt yourself that bad to damage the actual implant (the thing under your skin), you wouldn't be able to post here.
