A french PWP who had been asked to consider DBS by her neurologist a year ago, went to consult a few days ago, still not too convinced. As she was talking about her doubts, her neuro told her to wait for there was quite a bit of reconsideration about DBS at the moment. I know that in France and England, there is a trial going on with stimulation of pediculopontine nucleus but I hadn't heard about more serious doubts. When DBS was first performed here, they used to say it would benefit a good 50% of PWP. Now they talk about 5%. Has anyone heard more about all this? maryse ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
