Basimdan gecen bir fikra: bir gun pregabalin yazdirmaya bir bagimli gelmis. Doktor yazmamis. Bagimli Cimer’e sikayet etmis. Bashekimlikten doktora gelen kagit: “hastanin bel agrisi ilacini yazmamissiniz. Lutfen bunun aciklamasini yapin”.
@aysukisa
Birgun de eroin bagimlisi biri girdi. Eroini biraktim bana pregabalin yaziyorlar haftda iki kutu ama yetmiyor dedi. Ilac raporu istedi. Sonrada belindeki bicagi gosterip “benim kaybedecek birseyim yok zaten bir iki yila olecegim”dedi. A4 kagida ilacin ismini yazdim eline verdim

Today we tried to treat a patient with an SDR of 0.17! We were previously successful to create a lesion in a patient with an SDR of 0.22 but this time we failed to increase the temperature 😞 Take-home message: treat pts with SDR <.4 but not with .17 😉

A common question of our patients before unilateral FUS surgery is whether the tremor of their head, body or non-dominant hand will resolve after the procedure. We sought to answer this question in our recently published study in JNNP.
