The Neurosurgeon

You want a surgeon that has a proven track record in DBS surgery. Not just brain surgery but DBS surgery. More and more neurosurgeons are adding DBS to their list of surgeries but might not have done too many of them. I would say you’d want your surgeon to have done at least 100 DBS surgeries and hopefully more. They call it a doctor’s practice for a reason. The more practice the better. Here’s a couple of questions you might want to ask your prospective brain surgeon: How many DBS surgeries have you performed? How many had either a minor or major stroke? How many of the patients have had a staph infection? Has the surgeon done follow up studies for the previous patients? Learn all you can and look for vast experience.

Comments:

If we were to adhere to a minimum of 100 prior surgeries, there would be no surgeries. A surgeon must operate if he/she is to achieve a 100 surgeries mark. I suggest you inquire of the surgeon and staff re their training, results to date etc. Also, if possible, talk to previous patients, your referring doctor or support groups. My wife had DBS surgery a year ago from a dedicated, well-trained surgeon and staff with fewer than 100 surgeries. We could not be happier.

Physical therapy FORCES muelscsMassage therapy loosens themSee a chiropractor as wellMuch pain is from muelscs below is an example of what may help (based on headaches).Begin with a couple swigs of molasses or a couple of bananas daily magnesium (which regulates many things in the body) and potassium (a needed building block for muelscs).Drink at least 1/2 gallons of water per day. Running a body low on water is like running a car low on oil is the analogy the head of neurology at UCDavis told my husband about 10 years ago.Now to the cause muelscs your back, neck shoulders and head have tender spots. They are knots in the fibers of the muelscs called trigger points. It makes the muelscs tight which makes them press on nerves and other things causing the pain.The cure start with a professional massage, you will also want to go back over any place you can get to 6-12 times per session up to 6 times per day rubbing (or lightly scratching on your head) every where that is tender until the knots go away. The place where the skull connects to the spine press up under the edge of the skull (to get to those muelscs).For more information read The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies. It teaches what to do and where the pain comes from.
