I think there are only 123 or so in the United States, but becoming more frequent every day. I had flailing diskinesia before the surgery and none now. I don't take sinemet any more. One side is better than the other now but not bad enough to want to take sinemet. This is an internal device. They were experimenting with an external one in Canada a couple of years ago but I haven't heard of it since. It had too high a risk for infection. You need to ask a lot more questions. I'll be happy to try to answer the ones I can. jjjane
