I had this surgery done in 2017 at Kaiser Hospital in Richmond, California. It gave me my life back!

Thank you for this very informative video. If you may, I would like to ask you about a condition my wife faces after her DBS surgery two weeks ago. Actually since she has had this surgery she has felt a "pulling and tightness" on the right side of her head. It is also uncomfortable when she bows her head down and turns it from side to side. Is this the result of "bowstringing?" I have read the very little information there is online about this condition and I don't think she wants to live with these conditions for much longer. We are seeing our neurosurgeon today for the two week follow up. Thank you so much for any information you can give us.

Why not have 1 Presenter??? It's too hard/distracting to follow the info presented when you keep switching the Presenters!!!

Dont fall for the media hype. This surgery ruined by fathers life. He lost his speech, walking ability after DBS. Entire DBS had to be removed after 5 years because he caught an infection during battery replacement and he has been bed ridden since as they determined its too risky to put it back. He flew to the surgery on his own.
