If you feel like something's not right with your therapy, or you're not getting relief from your symptoms, you should call your doctor. You can call Medtronic DBS helpline for help with your device.
Call your doctor if any of the following situations occur:
There may be changes in the level of your symptom control over time. These changes may include:
In many cases, your clinician can correct these changes by reprogramming your DBS system. However, surgery may be required to reposition or replace the lead, replace the system, or remove the system. When the neurostimulator is turned off, your symptoms will return. Some symptoms return quickly. Other symptoms may take longer to return. Because your disease changes with time, your condition may improve, may worsen, or may remain unchanged with stimulation.
Always carry a card that identifies you as having an implanted device.
Your doctor’s office will send Medtronic the information necessary for you to receive your patient identification card. If your address, phone number, or physician changes, you are responsible for updating your information on file.
Call the DBS helpline for more information.
