DBS has become a much more reliable and successful surgery, but it comes with very high risks. I know many people who look great and feel great with DBS and I know others who don't.

My neuros have suggested DBS, but I would rather hold out for something neuro-restorative if possible. Understanding that this might not be possible, it still remains my "risk of choice" so to speak.

It's a perfectly understandable question!
