Dear doctor, My mother is suffering from Parkinson'S Disease from past 4 years. She has undergone a brain surgery in 2012, after which the Parkinson'S Disease signs slowly became visible. Her hand and leg shake continuously and involuntarily. She is taking drugs to reduce these movements. We want your advice on DBS. One should go for it?
