How I overcame OCD , severe depression and anxiety - Gamma Knife Radiosurgery

[vsalazar]

My name is David Gonzalez, I'm from El Salvador, Central America.

10 years ago I developed Generalized Anxiety Disorder, after 8 years of suffering my anxiety transformed into OCD. At that moment of my life I decided to end this suffering, so I reached out to MD and Neurosurgeon Eduardo Lovo (doctorlovo.com/experiencia/) , I looked up him for several reasons which are going to list:

1. He saved my uncle from two tumors in brain.

2. He studied in top Universities at USA, such as John Hopkins and MD Cancer Center.

Doctor Lovo explained to me that in El Salvador they have Radiosurgery procedure with Gamma Knife in order two target the neural circuits that are affected by OCD, depression and anxiety disorder, and he told this procedure has no side effects and this will help me to improve my life, so I decided to do the surgery.

After two years of the surgery I can tell this surgery has rewired my brain!!!! , basically all my obsessive thoughts went away and also my anxiety levels.

I'm very grateful and bless that I found Dr. Lovo and also my prayers helped me in order to recover from this situation very hard to deal with.

If anyone else there is struggling with OCD please know there exist medical treatment such as Gamma Knife to help you ( iocdf.org/about-ocd/treatme... )

I will continue publishing from time to time how I feel , if you want to reach out to me feel free to do it at: [e-mail]

I’m glad you’re doing well, that’s great. The treatment you’re referring to is a last resort treatment and is not recommended as a frontline treatment according to the IOCDF.

Hi Natureloverpeace .

Yes it's, in my case I decided to follow it due to kidney issues , and I was taking too much medicine to control my OCD ( 7 pills per day )

Hi kenster1 .This is not a merchants stuff, as a matter of fact I'm attaching to this thread all the medical procedure.

By the way,sorry but this is in Spanish due to my country this is the native language.

In my case I had to do it given that I was taking too much medicine to control my OCD, and my kidneys issues. I'm taking the time to write this thread for people who sufffers by this condition and don't know what else to do
