nelo,

Which location did you get approved at and how long did it take for a decision between the time you completed screening procedures and the time you got an answer?

I just spent 3 days at Wexner Medical Center/Ohio State University at Columbus going through screening procedures.

Sorry to mislead you. I am not in a trail. I just read the link that announced the trials.

I’m planning on having it later this year. I haven’t got the patience to wait. Been living with PD for about 18 years and I want my life back.

Hopefully. I’m speaking to the neurologist tomorrow so will find out then. Have to go for scans and tests before I get the final go ahead.

Not what you're looking for?
