Cognition tests for DBS
Asking those of you who have had
DBS
or who are current candidates: what kind of cognition tests were you given and how well (or badly) did you do on them? Did any of you have a negative evaluation and then another more positive one?

sharing my 2 cents...
Another friend in group has had 2
DBS
surgerys , 1 each yr at Lahey in Ma. She't great, 1 pill a day from 10 and no problems. So we've seen a surgery done on cd and the science to great. I'm glad if no other drugs are out in the near future, I can fall back on
DBS
and be comfortable.

Dostinex helps RLS
I have had RLS for about 20 years, it used to drive me nuts. Then i was diagnosed with a pituitary adenoma. For treatment I was given Dostinex (cabergoline). Suddenly my rls improved a lot. About 3 year's ago I was taken off Dostinex and guess what, my RLS returned with a vengeance. Dr started me on

zero's experience
I had
DBS
in June 2013. I am going for a change of battery end of August because the battery was deemed too weak when I went for review in June. Meds have seemed to refuse me from Bromocriptine, Syndopa plus, now since June 2017 Syncapone 100.
