Parkinson's 360: Deep Brain Stimulation

Though Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is not right for everyone with Parkinson's, this surgical treatment can have a significant impact on complications that arise from Parkinson's medications (including dyskinesia). Richie, 49, shares his experience receiving benefits from the surgery and what to expect before, during and after the procedure.
The Parkinson's 360 multimedia toolkit provides support and guidance to navigate the clinical, emotional and social aspects of Parkinson's disease.

Good stuff! I had DBS about 14 months ago. Remarkable improvement physical but there’s still a whack of non-motor symptoms to deal with. I’m battling it out with those beasties through solid exercise and cognitive therapy. All the best.
