Hi folks, I have a few Dbs questions for you. As I recall, Ray, you had your stimulator programmed on the operating table. There are three men in my pd support group who didn't get their controllers turned on until 4-5 days later. One of them told me that he experienced dramatic symptom improvement right away, even though the Dbs wasn't turned on yet. Does anyone know what that is about? Is it now customary to hold off programming like this? -- Steve in VT ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
