If you do get to the point of making a decision about ECT, PM me and I'll try to lay out the pros and cons for you. It is very, very important that you make an informed decision. I've gone through the process twice with positive results, but there can be some very serious long term problems for some people. Just don't go into it blindly.

Thanks Chris.
I don't currantly go to a day program, but I have in the past. I watch my grandson two days a week; the other days are a blur.
I've had ECT a long time ago for the wrong reason (wrong dx) so I know a little of what to expect but my circumstances (dx) has changed so I wonder if it's a good thing to do.
