Still giving thought to the ETC treatments

Im still considering the ETC treatment, my psychiatrist has left it on my shoulders, he did tell me that there could be some short-term memory loss for a while. I don't like that! But a lot of people have had great success with the treatment. I will still continue to do more research on it!

I have had ECT Treatments a couple of times. They work. As far a memory goes...I didnt find that ECT is any worst then meds. I don't know if i'm a good example though as my mind is shot.

Go as early in the day as you can. You can't eat of drink anything, even water.

Not what you're looking for?
