Default tremor dominant PD

Hey all you fellow movers and shakers. I am not tremor dominant, bradykinesia and rigidity are my constant companions. I have had DBS and wonder how many of you have looked into it. The results are far,far better for tremor than any other symptom. They can target the leads right to where they need to be in order for them to be effective. I have had PD for 15 yrs. now and I'm on sinemet 25/100 1 tablet every 2 hours. Agonists only raise the chance of dyskinesia. I have tried benadryl with good results but the other people on the road won't stay home so I can get out. Couldn't stay awake!
I guess its the old story of write down all your problems then exchange papers with someone and you'll want your paper back!
