Hello everyone,
I currently do botox injections, but it seems like it is not as effective as it used to be. Still on my medications.
I was just wondering if anyone has had any experience and opinions with any of these surgical treatments: Deep brain stimulation or Selective denervation surgery?
What do you think? When would you say go for surgery?
I have fear of surgery as I have heard major complaints from people I know that had orthopedic surgeries either they were worse after surgery or the surgery went wrong... Again, they were talking about other surgeries. I do not know anyone who had these surgeries. Looking for help and or advice.
