Kinder , Gentler and harmless Alternative of DBS
Seeking a kinder, gentler alternative, researchers from Korea's Yonsei University created minuscule magnets tagged with antibodies. The devices are known as nanoscale magnetic force actuators, or m-Torquers. These m-Torquers were injected into the subthalamic nucleus of mice with early- and late-stage

DBS stopped working
I’m looking to see if anyone has experienced similar
DBS
results, I had my
DBS
(GPI) surgery on 7/31 and immediately had positive results before the switch on. It felt like I was cured but I knew that this was the honeymoon phase.

Has anyone tried “compassionate use” or “right to try” laws?
Due to his cognitive decline, he’s not eligible for
DBS
, FUS, most trials, and my guess is even stem cell therapies would cause him trouble as tiny increases in dopamine make him crazy, Curious your thoughts?

DBS switch on news.
So with no
dbs
: I get meds that work, but with
dbs
, they don’t? Bit weird. Last night I was totally exhausted. I went to bed at about 9 and woke up at 8 without any sleeping aids whatsoever. Took a couple of Madopar but they don’t seem to have worked, at least with bradykinesia.

DBS journey
Anyway, things were awful the last two days: I was slurring and couldn’t organise my sentences and so I spoke to the
DBS
nurse this afternoon: she suggested that i take the power down a couple of notches on either side. Worked out so well.

Understanding listening time at certain Db?
What safe level of
Dbs
could I potentially go to, and just do the gigs without earplugs for 8 hours total per week? Many thanks for any insight on this.

DBS and balance
My left side is amore severe than right hence the voltage is higher and more contact points . My body tends to tilt to the right’ and I tend to fall backward on the right, My neurologist tried to reduce the frequency, it helps with the balance but not so good at reducing stiffness. Any insight?

Working full-time with a DBS
DBS
Deep Brain Stimulation. 1) Are there any warriors who have received
DBS
and are still employed full-time? 2) Are there any IT/computers warriors who have received
DBS
and are still working? Just wondering if that's humanly possible. Thank you for your time.

DBS effectiveness.
Was
DBS
effective in treating your pain, stiffness, dyskinesias? Did it have any affect with freezing? I find myself taking more and more meds, and new treatments are taking to long to get here.
