For clarification, my Neuro had mentioned the DBS subject to me about a year ago. At that time I really didn't give it much consideration. My progression has worsened in the last year and my level of discomfort has increased. DBS may be the only way I can regain some semblance of a normal life. If I wait much longer to have the DBS surgery, it may be harder on me physically. My Neuro says there is no waiting period other than the evaluation and that I could be scheduled for DBS IN January. Lots to think about. Thanks Soccertese
