SGM Coberly, I first heard about this procedure back in mid-2008, when I was in the WTU at Ft. Hood. I was given one, but I don't recall it being for my PTS. I got mine to ease the incredible pain of the migraines I was getting almost daily, because of my TBI. I can't really remember if it helped out my PTS at all, because that first year/18 months after my injury is pretty much a blur. I have had other friends of mine who have had some relief of their symptoms due to this treatment, but I honestly can't say one way or another if it works or not. It does seem very feasible, and I will have to look into this more. Thanks for posting the link!
