dystonia after requip
As time went on he got a
DBS
but never was able to resolve the dystonia. He continued to be on Requip until well after his
DBS
placement. It has been frustrating for me because I know that Requip was the devil that caused my husband's iissues.

HDT and dyskinesia
A friend of mine and a PWP has severe dyskinesia and I was wondering if the high dose thiamine protocol would help her? I understand that HDT is meant to prevent developing dyskinesia but I'm not sure if it helps decrease the movements once you have it. She was considering deep brain stimulation but

Having DBS done?
I was wondering if anyone out there has had
DBS
. My doctor says nows the time for me to get it, and I would like to talk to other people who have had it done, and have they had a bad side effects from it. I live in Chicago and am thinking about going to RUSH hospital. Any info would be helpful.

Boston Scientific VS Medtronic DBS
I’m curious if there’s anyone that has had their Medtronic unit replaced with a Boston Scientific. If so, what are your impressions and experiences.

Moved to new condo, he is falling everywhere
They upped his
DBS
devices to 3.7 & 3.9. Doctor said he seemed he was doing a bit better. I bought him the Parkinson’s walker, with the laser. Hand grips to release wheels. It’s been helping him to not fall.
