Does TMS Work? What is the success rate? (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Depression)

[@paulo5861]

I will be starting TMS this week and I am nervous about how it will effect me. Thanks for sharing your journey while getting TMS RX. I wish I still had a cat sometimes they are so relaxing to watch at times.

Thanks so much for your comment! I hope it goes well for you! I was really nervous at first, too, but once I got the hang of it, it became a piece of cake. Hang in there and let me know how you progress!

I was being given TMS on both sides of my head but it started interfering with sleep. Now is only given to me on the left side 👍 is this the same side they treat you? Hope you can help

Hey! Thanks for your comment! I only had mine on the left side. Are you getting better results?

@@DestinysMusings Hi! Yes, last night was good. I hope tonight is the same and that it only gets better and soon no longer depend on klonopin for sleep and anxiety. They give me 1200 hundred pulses every session, was this the same for you? If I remember correctly the power is up to 54. I have some head pressure and eye twitching but nothing to bad, did you experience the same? I think I’m on session number 10.

@@hoyconjessi5141 Hi! Arg, I had that all memorized and it’s written down somewhere but I can’t find it 🤯 I did have some twitching occasionally diring the session, but we moved the machine so it would stop. I didn’t have it after the fact. But I did have head tenderness! I hope you keep feeling better/sleeping!!

@@DestinysMusings Hi ❤️ thank you for replying!! My eye stopped twitching now that they are only working on the left side. I get up to 1200 pulses 👍 is that around the same they gave you each session? I been the better mood and noticed a beautiful cloudy sky yesterday and was shocked that I felt happy. I hope this means is working. My sleep is up and down right now but I saw your video where you explained that it was like that in the beginning so I hope it gets better.

@@hoyconjessi5141 I’m glad to hear that!! Wonderful!! I will have to check my notes on the pulses. I’m glad things are going better for you :)
