What kind of sensations are you experiencing? When did you have the DBS done? What are the settings on your stimulator? Tony

Hi there, Prof!

I am so sorry you're having bad sensations w/your dbs. Have you discussed them yet with the Neurosurgeon who did the implant or your neurologist?

Also, what type of sensations are you feeling that are bothersome? How long ago did you have the surgery? Do you feel uncomfortable 7/24 or? What meds are you still taking?

The DBS is only as good as the programmers..... It is my uneducated belief that the Neurosurgeon has to be close because the amplitude and electrodes take over from there. I urge you to find another programmer that obviously listens to you. The effort relies on them ... the outcome relies on you.

Not what you're looking for?

When I take sinemet for the first 45 minutes to an hour I have terrible tremors anyone has a solution for it

Does taking a higher dose of sinemet help to reduce tremors and will it kick in quicker?
