Dear Dr. Chris, Thank you for all of your recent posts, and for sharing your clinical experience with PD . I am 49, in my 14th year of YOPD, and using Tasmar, SinemetCR, generic Sinemet, abd Eldepryl. If I were to consider bilateral STN-DBS, it is NOT approved by Meicaid i HAVE NO OTHER INSURANCE. What does one do ? I do not have $$$$$ saved. What do very low-income people do to get access to surgery?
