> Have you thought about rTMS or the Vagus nerve stimulator implant? I don't know anything about the deep brain stimulation. Sorry.
Hey, I was being evaluated for the DBS OCD study in six people in florida under Dr. Goodman - I was told that if the results are postive enough, they're going to seek a grant to perform it on 60 patients. Last I checked they hadn't recruited the sixth patient, they're looking for uncomplicated, severe, trtmt resistant cases. You probably know about the study, - google NIMH, Wayne Goodman, DBS OCD, or scout through psychiatry at UFL gainesville.They did DBS for major debression in Toronto, - I'm sure you know that - i'm going for an assessment, I'll keep you posted:)
