I received ECT inpatient several years ago during a bout of deep untreatable (otherwise) depression. It was a life saving procedure that I would do again if need be. Considering the alternative, it is a very safe and effective tool in combatting severe symptoms of depression.
Yes, memory loss existed, and minor headaches afterward which were immediately treated by the nurses. I am certain if I was not offered this procedure inpatient, I would not be here today to relay my experience.
Good luck and take care of you!
