Alison and List Members: I'm sorry, how thoughtless of me - I don't have dyskinesia because I don't take PD meds and my DBSs stopped my tremors. Don't know what I would have done if I had either of these 2 conditions when I had cataract surgeries. I got turned OFF during recent crown dental procedure but the shaking wasn't that bad yet. And I get impatient with folks who don't "understand" - I should know better. As Sidney and others have pointed out, the cataract surgery today is really slick and quick, so you have that going for you.
