    I had DBS surgery in August, 2016 at Vanderbilt University hospital in Nashville, TN.  They turned on the generator on September 3rd, 2016.  Stopped my shaking and everything was wonderful for 2 days.  Third day I was severly emotional and like I was running on speed X 10.  After a week of that, I was reprogramed, turned down.  It was too low and did not control the shaking.  Went back on October 11, 2016 and they reprogramed me and this time moved from B section to A section in the brain.  Did well for a couple of days and then my blood pressure started running VERY high and not able to keep it down with medication.  Is this one of the side effects????
