DBS Story

[muragod]

I had my DBS on March 20 2019.at one ofthe famous hospital in India. Still tuning going on. I have stiff neck. Taking 75 percent medicine. Surgeon claims your STN was too much narrow and thin. So it will take some time. God only knows when I will recover.

Awaiting with lot of problems.Intial 2 months was good,due to micro embalming effect

Hope it goes better with you soon, Muragod.

I plan to have DBS this month. What do you consider the "Pro @Con"s of DBS?

If you had a choice, would you do it again

What is the micro embalming effect? Which device did you have implanted in India? Medtronic, or Boston Scientific or Abbott? I am having DBS in Sept.

I hope your programing will help you get better results soon.

[muragod in reply to ktbate]

Micro Em-blaming is the burning of tissues of brain during long operation.This will give u positive result for some time

Meditronics is only used in India

All the best.It may be Good or bad for me.Let us hope for the best

Intrigued to hear about micro embalming? Is this some procedure available in India? Talking of things available in India, are you aware of pharmacies where drugs are available in India? I tried Zooley but it doesn't seem to work from outside the sub-continent and pharmacies revealed to internet searches seem to be absolutely governed by whoever pays google most money to overcharge their customers!
