Does anyone have any experience with DBS and balance issues. Lately I cant seem to be able to be on my feet and I'm finding myself sitting i my powerchair for most of the day. I don't think that it is one of the symptoms that responds to DBS.
Thanks |

Were you having balance issues before surgery? How long ago did you have your surgery?

I have had a DBS, both sides, for 7 years. Balance was not one the Parkinson's symptoms that was supposed to be helped. I also have bad balance, espiecially when getting up from a crouching position or turning to fast. Maybe you might consider talking to your Neurologist.

I just wanted to chime in here. I too have had DBS (only one one side). I had balance problems before and still have the problem after. Balance is not one of the symptoms that DBS helps with.
