Maintenance Visits After Your Main Course
Once the daily course ends, many clinics taper visits down over a few weeks rather than ending all at once. Some people later return for periodic maintenance or a fresh course if symptoms creep back. Ask early how your provider handles follow-up, since plans often cover the first course differently from later ones.
Measuring Change With Mood Checklists
Your clinic will likely ask you to complete the PHQ-9 or a similar questionnaire at the start and every week or two. It is quick to fill out. Comparing scores over time helps you and your provider talk about progress in plain numbers, and it is often part of what insurance asks for when approving more sessions.

Can I get TMS here if I live in Pennsylvania or New Jersey?
Yes, people often cross the state line for care. Check that your plan covers out-of-state providers, since some limit you to in-network offices. Medicaid from another state usually does not pay for care in Delaware, so call the office before scheduling.
Do I have to take time off work during TMS?
No. Sessions are short, you stay conscious and clear-headed, and you can drive afterward, so most people keep working. Many book visits before work, at lunch or on the way home. Plan for a slightly longer first week while the team maps your dose.
Can I have TMS if I have metal in my body?
It depends on where the metal is. Fillings and braces are usually fine, but metal near the head, such as aneurysm clips or some implants, can rule TMS out. Your provider screens for this. Seizures are rare, and a light headache is the side effect people report most.
