Hello
About three years ago my assorted team of Neurologists PD Specialists all of whom created over 3tons (metric)of paperwork on old Fed came up with a suggestion, they wanted me to try this new fangled idea of having a external pump feeding a steady dose of Dopamine through the wall of my abdomenemmenemm, can never spell that so I just throw a few letters in a heap and hope for the best, a tube from the pumpsending the dpa direct to my small intestine , a sort of stomach by pass if you like, my reaction being a sqeamish being was you can stick that idea where the sun, well you know what I mean,however theyears rolled by and I became very ill not just with PD but other nasty ailments such as very very severe water infections, the life threatening kind, chest infections, numerous falls prostate cancer and a number of other seriously worrying problems, not the least being DEPRESSION with avengence, so after taking all these hits ,I summoned the great and the good at NTGH you know who you are,,,,and decided the only course left to mewas to accept the advice of my Nurse Consultant and try the dpa system, if it failed to improve my life they would remove it
So I had the operation,, I dont like operations... and to cut a long tale short, the improvement was amazing I could walk upright talk my mood was%110 better, so a total success then well no I still have the odd shutdown but I am still 85% BETTER than before some days 95% so why do I not hear of more people taking advantage of the Improvements offered by the dpa, is anyone out there, I would like to compare notes.
Regards Fed
