DBS for both PD and ET

Has anyone had DBS for both PD and ET where the surgeon targeted the VIM AND STN? I am close to my surgery date and I am looking to communicate with patients that have already gone through this surgery.

Thanks!

  1. Hi , Thanks for your questions. Although It might not be exactly what you're looking for, I wanted to pass along some articles about people's experience with DBS. When is your surgery? If you'd like, please feel free to keep us posted on how you're feeling. Wishing you all the best in your upcoming procedure. - Lauren (ParkinsonsDisease.net Team)
