I have a late 40's male that has late onset Obsessional/Intrusive thought patterns (No compulsions) and he wants to do the one day TMS. The problem, is that I haven't found any research on any one day TBS inhibitory trials for either RDLFPC r pre-SMA. The only thing I can find is The 5-day ahTBS protocol over the pre-SMA. For context, We use Magventure CB70 coil. According to Open Evidence, the 5-day is the closest to a condensed "one-day-style" rapid protocol for OCD. 

 

Also, not sure if D-cycloserine/Vyvanse that is used for the ONE-D DLFPC would also be efficacious in this situation?   Any thoughts would be appreciated.

When our office manager attemtped to use the Availity site it forwarded her to Cohere. No help at all, no response for 2 months. Can't get a human on the line at BCBST. Finally got a woman at Cohere and gave her info with no help. She kept saying what was entered wasn't completed, and we had a bunch of drafts but no help there. Finally I contacted Dr. Scott West in Nashville and his office person Desiree thankfully gave us the form to fax into BCBST at their usual fax number. She said on her PC she cannot get Availity to pre-cert TMS but her coworker on her PC can. Anyone else have issues with BCBST, Availity, or Cohere? There's a "Welcome to Cohere" webinar this Thursday and you bet I'll be on it with my office manager.

Thank you in advance!

I'm interested in sharing a room.  I thought I replied to this earlier.  Is it just the night of 06/04 and 06/05? Or does it also include night of 06/03?   

Please feel free to email me directly at sanj_s@hotmail.com. 

Thanks.
