I would like to embrace all of you and tell you that after DBS surgery, in July 2016, today (September 2017) I am not taking any medicine and I feel really good.
Today I'm 48, I have Parkinson's disease since I was 36 years old. I took about 1g of Levodopa, until the day of DBS, and today I take nothing.
From January 2017 I go to the gym every day, for about 2 hours, and from 84 kg I'm slim up to 76 kg.
I love you all.

hi everyone,
last month the surgeons replaced my neurostimulator (Medtronic Activa PC) after about 5 years (the batteries were almost empty). Now I have a rechargeable neurostimulator (Medtronic Activa RC) implanted. I have to recharge it about every 10 days, but its duration is 15 years.
