Deep Brain Stimlation (DBS)
I recently (June2nd) had the
DBS
op at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford. Having had PD for 17 years I would say the op has been a success. It is early days yet, but I hope to be back playing golf & tennis in the not too distant future.

Has anyone had the Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) op? I have just had the op and am keen to share experiences. I have had PD for 17 years.
I would also be keen to know if anyone with PD goes to a gym. I go 2-3 times per week and again would be keen to share experiences. Thanks. Tony

Getting On Track
There is a honeymoon period with
dbs
. I felt so great the first week that I forgot to take my meds but then by the 2nd week everything kind of settle in. I finally figured out my daily dose of meds and got on track. . While this isn't the cure every ones hoping for its a start..

Measuring Tourette's
There is even a case of deep brain stimulation (
DBS
) where the patient's tics were a lot better after the operation, but they they didn't actually feel any better as they still had the urge to tic- an example of hard numbers not telling the truth of the situation.

DBS

The Dreaded Manflu
I’ve escaped! Well, for a short while, whilst we enjoy a lovely Christmas dinner with the in-laws. Yesterday was my 37th birthday which the walking manflu didn’t realise until 3.15, no card, no present, (no Christmas present either) this has been an on-going problem since 2003 not just a manflu hic-up

A little bit down
I'm definitely not too keen on the idea of deep brain stimulation (
DBS
). I'm going to go have a shower because I was at work today and I have somehow managed, despite changing clothes, to retain the smell of hamster whizz, possibly in my hair so I am going for shower two now!
