My husband had DBS 2 yrs ago…within a couple of months, the seldom experienced “freezing” became regular and often…we cannot find any info on possible meds that could lessen this symptom

Hello @suca,

While I've never had DBS, I can understand how the "freezing" can be a problem. Have you talked with your husband's movement disorder specialist? What medications have been tried to relieve this symptom?
