Can Someone Who Had Dbs Explain To Me The In-home Programming You Do Yourself?
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

the doctor programmed the device in the office and gave me three settings to try, each one for one week. I tried them all and they are not good for me, make me too jumpy. Am I doing something wrong?? Bean
