If you care to share, it will be very helpful to me. I will be ongoing this surgical procedure within a week to 10 days? Any thoughts or comments for me, would be extremely helpful for me!

I had ECT 20 years ago. I still don't remember so much of my past. Also I had just finished Real Estate School and I have no memory of any of the studies or even walking in to the building. Beleive me finding the right meds are hard, but it is much better than losing memories of even raising my daughter. Stop and think this out first
