Lightbulb New here ... DBS in my future

Hi,

Cleveland Clinic ... I go in for the DBS preliminary next month, probably (waiting on a phone call from the scheduler)

If the C C wasn't within driving distance (5.5 hours - one way) I wouldn't do it. Their reputation carries weight with me.

I'm 51 (6 years diagnosed - on S.S. disability) with truly awful Dyskinesia and have had 3 Neurologists tell me it's definitely time to seriously consider it, so ....

I'm scared and full of 2nd guessing ... not to mention positively dreading the umpteen 11 hour car trips.

Anyone care to hold my hand?

Mike
