So it turns out that the doctor I went to go see does not do rTMS but instead does deep TMS. I was wondering if any of you had experience with a deep TMS or maybe both? Either way I would appreciate it if you shared your thoughts and/or experiences and opinions as to why you think it is a beneficial treatment or not. Thank you.

Thank you. I am sharing my experience with deep Tms in the “other treatments “ heading, if anyone is interested.

dTMS, 42 sessions, did nothing for me. But I am very TRD and YMMV.

I did like 30 treatments of dTMS. Sadly, that did not do anything for me. They switched me to rTMS on the right frontal lobe - inhibitory. I've done 15 treatments of this and have 10 more scheduled. This is helping.
From talking to the Pdocs and the techs, it's kinda a guessing game one which one will work for you. Best of luck!! |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
