I had my bilateral done 3 yrs ago, have had the IPG (generator) replaced and still going strong.
They did the brain surgery but didn't find anything!  |
Jim,
What is the IPG generator? My husband had the DBS bilateral done in June 2009 and isn't having much success. We think there could be something faulty with the battery is that the generator you mention? Would appreciate any help.
