i like reading about what you all have to say about DBS, since i have really no idea how it is thought to work. i dont really undeerstand which parts of the brain are supposed to do what, or if they would know which part of my brain to us the DBS on since my problem has been caused by medication having seemiingly permanent effects on me. i have dystonia/tardive dyskinesia in the muscles in my face. blank emotions. constantly feeling like i havent slept in 2 days. and my mood is very sensitive to foods i eat. i believe the same mechanism that is causing my tardive dyskinesia is also causing my sensitivity to foods.
im also wondering what the difference between tardive dyskinesia and dystonia is? i know DBS has been approved for dystonia,, so maybe it could help me with that, while also helping me with my sensitivity to foods.
