Well Parkinsonians, it was almost a week ago that I put a DBS survey out on the LIST. Am I perhaps to believe that not many survive the "ordeal", because I received only one reply! I had more people who were interested in the results, and I am sure they are as disappointed as I am in the nonparticipation. Did I do something wrong? Did I ask the wrong questions? Or are you all so happy with your "new life" that you don't have time to sit down at the computer?! I'll try it again, if you have had DBS surgery the Rockford Young Parkinson's Support Group would like to know about your experience, whether it is negative or positive. As I said before, you may reply either to the LIST or to me personally : [log in to unmask] Sharon Habing, facilitator Rockford Young Parkinson DBS survey Age Age at diagnosis Parkinson's symptoms/medications taken before DBS Other medical conditions for which you take medication/medication taken Previous surgical interventions - Pallidotomy, Thalamotomy, other Date of DBS month/year Parkinson's symptoms/medication taken after DBS at 2 months 6 months 1 year Today If it was yours to do over, would you undergo this procedure. Why or why not? Please explain your feelings about this surgery as it pertains to you and your particular situation ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
