DBS for bradykinesia
I am a non tremor bradykinestic type. My off periods are characterized by slowness and dystonia in my feet with anxiety. The neurologists thinks it's time for DBS. Does anyone have experience with similar symptoms?

DBS Surgery
Had DBS in July this year. Seen Dr. twice for tweaking of the electrical currant. So far it seems to be a trade off of symptoms. Controls tremors (a blessing) but now having trouble walking, some slurred speech, ridigity. All of these were in the backgroud and minimal before. Also having trouble

I have come across the following link:http://healthimpactnews.com/2013/tetanus-vaccine-causes-a-new-disease-known-as-antiphospholipid-syndrome/ Does anyone know if this has been followed up or if a response from Prof Hughes has been given.

Shingles
I have shingles at the moment and am feeling dreadful. Can anyone out there tell me how long it is likely to last. The trouble is that because I feel so rotten it has made me feel so depressed as well. Doesn't time drag when you feel rotten?!!!!!

DBS - Criteria of Suitability of Patients in NHS care
For PD patients, what symptoms and any other relevant criteria are considered before a PD patient to be considered a good or suitable candidate for a DBS operation on the NHS? Also I wonder how that varies with a country / health care system that is funded privately?

I have read so much about migraine/headaches on the site, I have not yet seen anything regarding a PFO. I know your pain. I suffered from
. migraine since I was a child. I had the 'aura', vomiting, hated noise and bright lights. I fainted a few times over the years, heavy nose bleeds etc. I had the attacks two/three times a week. At that time it was take a headache pill and carry on. So I carried on. I carried on working, I could not afford
