About Me
Hi! My name is Bruce. I live in North Miami Beach, FL. I was originally diagnosed with PD in 9/03 and, as is common, I was re-diagnosed with PSP in 11/05. I asked my doctor to do DBS surgery, and he then told me that he suspects that I have PSP, and thereby would not be a candidate for DBS. He had noticed that my eyes were whacky, and that I did not respond to the PD medication with the typical "ons and offs". As a matter of fact, i now no longer take any medication for my affliction, other than the typical blood pressure, cholesterol, anti-depressant, etc. drugs. Please see my long bio!! More…
