Default The pump

I did not have to meet any criteria per se except for reviewing my medical records to determine the extent my Parkinson's.

As far as DBS goes, I had bilateral placement in the STN in 2007. I do have great relief with the DBS I have a lot of problems with delayed on time, dyskinesia, and still needing a lot of medication to get through the day. I hope this will be greatly reduced with the pump.

Default Abbvie

Hi Jim

I used to frequent here' but just dropped in to check on things.

I will post what I've been doing in your thread about just getting off the phone with Abbvie.
