Default DBS not a panacea

Charlie - DBS may be great for some PD symptoms, but I'll betcha that there's no claim that can be made that it changes the way other people treat you - although I'm quite sure it has you feeling better about yourself! DBS isn't the only answer, and it is not for everyone. I'm feeling better physically since I was dx'd almost 9 years ago; quitting work and chilling out have been beneficial. Everyone with this disease is different symptomatically. The one thing we all have in common is that it has changed our lives. Our differences again emerge in the varying way we cope and dope!

Cheers!
