If focused ultrasound surgery isn't a miracle, it's pretty damn close. I would know because I had it done and my aggressive Parkinson's Tremors were completely abolished in the time it takes for a long lunch.. what an amazing and joyful feeling to suddenly be Tremor free! If anyone wants to see the process and the hope and inspiration that it gives check out the documentary I made. It's on KZbin at Tremor Documentary 2022, and it has won 23 Film Festival Awards worldwide. Pretty amazing stuff. Be prepared to laugh and cry.

If this option worked on you than I should give it a thought. I am from Malaysia. Can.you pls share the contact for this hospital and doctor whom I can communicate. Tq

[@jenixav]

It's been 4 yrs now since I had it..n managing with medication only.every sessions of the tremor is so unpredictable and the muacle ache too much pain to bear

[@johndutton3679]

My procedure was done by Dr. Rees Cosgrove at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. I was a good candidate because I had tremors only on one side and the medicines didn't work for me. Also they checked the thickness of my skull and it wasn't too thick! I wish you the very best. 🙏​@@jenixav

I’m so happy for you 🥲

[@Lipolimtown]

Isn’t Parkinson’s so much more than essential tremor? Isn’t it anhedonic states resembling almost schizophrenic like negative symptoms like apathy and abulia and amotivation? How is focused ultrasound in your opinion addressing these core issues that Parkinson’s, bipolar, schizophrenia and depression share?

Are people in CA still wearing masks? 😢

[@alexandrawhitelock6195]

OMG…they are doing brain surgery…medical masks 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🙄

[@reflux043]

If you notice in the video, they are only wearing masks inside the hospital. Its common sense, not to pick up viruses themselves, but especially working around vulnerable people.

[@drsuessl]

They don’t need to wear a mask for or with me.
