    Ask Us Anything About Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery Day

    Each person living with Parkinson’s disease (PD) will have a unique journey with their treatments, including the decision to have deep brain stimulation (DBS), which is a surgical procedure to treat Parkinson’s motor symptoms. While DBS isn’t suitable for everyone, it can be helpful in the right person, and it’s a complex, lifelong choice. And although the experience goes far beyond surgery day, brain surgery often looms large in people’s minds as they are contemplating DBS. In this episode, our expert panelists tackle community-sourced questions on DBS surgery day: what to wear, how loved ones can support, what it feels like to be awake during brain surgery and more. Tune in to hear from two people who have had DBS, a neurosurgeon and a movement disorder specialist and learn more about the realities of surgery day.   For more information on deep brain stimulation, download our newly updated, comprehensive guide or check out our webinar at michaeljfox.org.

Mentioned in this episode: This Giving Tuesday, December 3, you can help us sustain and grow the momentum in Parkinson’s research. All donations will be matched up to $4 million, which means your impact will be doubled. Visit michaeljfox.org/match2024 to help us accelerate research and be part of the cure.
