I had my DBS surgery in Sept of 2017. I reduced my meds from approx 20 Carb/Levo high dosage to (6) 25/100 carb/levo and 3 gaberpentins a day. I am not having any problems with stiffness or tremors. It all has to do with the tweeking in of your unit. I still walk with a cane for balance. I am glad I did it.

I had my dbs done in March 2017 and happily I am now meds free.

thanks
