I had DBS in 2013.
The Dr. prescribed about 3 days worth of pain medication. He said wether I was hurting or not to take the medicatíon. After that he told me to continue with Tylenol or Acetometaphine if I was still in pain and to let him know if I needed to take the extra over the counter medicatíon. I never felt any pain so I am not sure if it was because I took the pain medication when it was given.

I had no pain at all.

I had DBS in 2012. I am guessing that your neck is strained badly from the position you were in during brain surgery. My pain was head ache and scalp entry points. I needed painkillers (opiates) a week or so. Don’t let anyone tell you there is no pain involved. Also, the cables run in the neck under your skin: this can cause tethering pain. Take care— the surgery has really helped so hang in there! :)

Have you contacted the Dr.? I don't remember the pain you are describing. I have neck pain located like you describe but had that before surgery which I associated with arthritis. I to have my first neurostimulator replaced the 17th.

I don't know about the famous part?? Bean
