[TRDORTON]

Hi folks. My name is Tim. I was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2012. Had 2 DBS surgeries in 2013, both sides. Hands are steady now, but still have some head and body shaking and no balance. I'm glad that I found you, been looking for a while. I used to be an Auto Tech, Calif. lic Smog Tech, Nissan factory trained,auto electrical specialist for over 25 years. My shaking and bad walking caused my production in the shop to go down, so my manager ignored my request for time off to see a doctor and fired me in 2008. I hope to have some fun and maybe learn a trick or two.

There's also a forum search feature if you're looking for older posts regarding Deep Brain Stimulation or anything else.
