Does this unit deal strictly with alzheimer's? Or are you interacting with elderly individuals with disorders like schizophrenia or borderline?

Do you still feel that the DBS implant was the right move to take - even after complications due to a stroke?

I'm looking at having to potentially end up with that as an implant in a few years or so due to progressive Essential Tremors.

Was stroke detailed to you as a possible danger of the surgery?

And when were you first diagnosed with Parkinson's?

Thank you for the response. :) I've been very frightened about the notion of a DBS and anything whereas an implant is concerned. This makes me feel better about it.

I find that mmj assists with my tremors. All of the medications I've tried for them (Mysoline, Beta Blocckers, Topamax, Neurontin, et al) have not been as a beneficial and have had more side effects.

Indica strains high in CBD content have helped out so much.

They may help you. Talk it over with your neurologist and ask about giving it a try.
