Someone is going to get a
deep brain stimulation implant to improve their depression symptoms. It looks like they are going to document their progress on this blog (
278-005 DBS Trial). Should be some interesting commentary.
So there's the start. I am patient 278-005 in a DBS study. My surgery is scheduled for December. I want to diary what's going on and what happens. I want to mainly for me - but also for anyone else suffering from depression - like Kara did for me - to remind us to not give up hope - there is always something else to try. And being a guinea pig? Well, that's ok too. I'll take my 4/9 chance for six months and my 2/3 chance after 6 months to feel better.
Thanks to Dr. Shock
for the tip.
