The next phase of my DBS surgery will be on Monday April 27th. Same routine. Nothing to eat or drink past midnight. No PD meds 24 hours before surgery. Be at the hospital in Redwood City by 5:45 AM. Get violated.
This time they will do the other side of my brain, install the battery pack(s) in my chest, and run the connection wires down my neck just under the skin. No, it will not be an inhancement of any sort. I already checked! The furthest in the packs can be placed is only 1 inch below the skin. I already asked! I just hope they have someone in the O.R. who is good with a needle and thread! Metal stitches do nothing for the bustline, especially with tank top weather upon us. I will be looking for boxing gloves if I wake up with staples anywhere near my chest!!
