Hi! I had DBS surgery in July this year at Mayo Clinic in Rochester. I had my head shaved only at the incision sites so I looked really ok after the surgery. When wearing my sun hat you could not even tell I had surgery.

Thank you so much for the information.

Hello @dgt1978 and welcome to Mayo Connect. I appreciate you sharing about your DBS experience at Mayo Clinic. As the surgery was just a few months ago, I'm wondering how you are doing now.

What PD symptoms were you experiencing that were helped by the DBS procedure? Are you still having adjustments made?
