Many Updates, but One at a Time!

Hello Everyone,

I had not posted since my last programming. I have a lot to say, but I will do it in a couple of posts. The first one is the "results" of that last programming. The last setting was WONDERFUL for my right side. It has been incredible to see what modern technology can do. The toes on my right foot had always been curled inward and now, they are straight. I am working on getting them to wiggle some, but I am sure that will come with time. My right knee has not locked since I left the doctor's office that day. My right hand is doing great. I can pick up things with much more ease and not that much shaking. My writing can still use some improvement, but it is better. So the right side - GREAT!

The left side on the other hand, was not a happy camper with the new setting. So much so, that I had to find someone in Atlanta to just tweak it down to the old setting until I got to NY in April. I spent three weeks walking at a 60 to 90º angle, and now we are walking straighter.

So that is the DBS/Dystonia update.

I will be posting about my birthday and my visit to Miami. And with those posts, will come lots of pictures.

All my love and gratitude to everyone for your love, support, prayers and contributions.

Always,
Millie
