Thanks, for sharing this article about brain stimulation (DBS) for treating Parkinson's disease. The way DBS helps with motor symptoms and the requirements for patients to qualify are well explained. I like how the article goes into depth about the pros and cons of the treatment. It's a read, for those thinking about DBS as a treatment choice.
