Default DBS - the good, the bad, and the ugly

I was dx with PD 15 years ago at the age of 43. For the first 15 years I was only on Mirapex and Artane, both considered "agonist" drugs. I added Carbidopa/Levidopa about 5 years ago.

I'm seriously considering DBS, but before I do, I want to seriously look into all aspects of that surgery. The example I give is this ... Before ordering something from Amazon, I read the one star comments first. In other words, I want to know people's BAD experiences and what COULD go wrong. It's easy to concentrate on only the positive comments ... but I find I'm much more informed if I research the bad comments as well.

I sincerely appreciate any and all comments.

Thanks ...
