Hi,
Thank you for your post. I am scheduled to have this procedure in December, 2026 in NYC but am considering postponing it. At first it seemed like the perfect solution to my tremors and being able to stop the rather high dosage of Primadone I am taking. However, I have recently met someone who sailed through her first procedure but has had difficult side effects from her second procedure. These include dizziness, nauseousness, and swallowing issues. I have called my doctor’s office and asked more about the frequency of these side effects and was told “more people don’t have them than have them.” That was not reassuring to me.
I would like to hear from more people who have had this procedure done.
I should note here that I have Essential Tremor and not Parkinson’s.
